show dbs              //show the list of databases
use <...>             //select/use a specific db (nb: replace <...> with the db name).
show collections      //shows all collections in selected db
db.<...>.count()      //show number of docs in the coll (nb: replace <...> with coll name).
db.<...>.find()       //display docs in coll (nb: replace <...> with coll name).
