use tee command to redirect output to a file in a non-existent dir

Question

I am trying to use the tee command to redirect output to a file, and I want the file to be created in a dir which is yet to be created.

date | tee new_dir/new_fi         


        

Answer 1

mkdir ./new_dir && date | tee ./new_dir/new_file

Since it is tee command, it simultaneously writes both to the new_file and to stdout
