Haven't used many os'es but it is useradd and passwd So decided by yourself.
you can use
adduser
command as welluseradd is the actual linux command.
adduser is actually just a script which makes it all easier.
i remember useradd from Unix days. thanks for the detail.

The default behaviour of useradd differs slightly between distro. On CentOS,
useradd testuser
will add the user and create the user's home directory. On Debian, the home directory is not created unless you use:useradd -m testuser
.Whats the cmd to list users ? and when i typed passwd lolok it said "passwd: user 'lolok' does not exist"
cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwd
will give you a list of the users on your system. Most will be system accounts like "mysql" and "daemon".on debian i prefer using adduser
