About "ls" , how can I just show directories only (except linked directories and hidden directories)

Question

I meet some problem about "ls" this command

I want to print just only directory without hidden or linked

but I use man ls to look the explanation , but I didn't found

if there is a flag that I can do what I want ...

thanks

below is the question I am going to solve ...

 4. Display the visible exits

This is two commands: The first command prints "Visible exits: "
-> It must not advance the cursor to the next line.
The second command displays the visible exits and then a period (.).
-> To prevent the linked directories contents from also displaying, you 
will need a flag.
-> Several wildcard patterns will be needed.
-> The period will be the last of these patterns.
   The period means the current directory. But here it will seem, to
   the user, to be a period at the end of a sentence listing visible
   exits.
-> You will need to use a flag to keep the output from being
   sorted (otherwise the period will not stay at the end).
-> With several patterns to search, some may have no matches. That
   is OK, but we don't want to see warning messages. Redirect these.

Solution 1

Use ls -d */. The */ is a wildcard that expands to all directories in current directory (directories end in /). -d tells ls to list the names of directories given as arguments and not their content.

Solution 2

You should look into the stat command. Something like:

stat -c '%F %n' * | sed -n '/^directory /s///p'

There's also find

find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -print

Find will show you hidden directories (including . the current directory)

If all the OP needs is the name then ls serves no purpose here and echo would work just as well.

Given the wording in the question this may also not be enough (no hidden directories). That being said the sorted bit of the question confuses me as does the bit about the . at the end and the current directory.

but using ls -d */. print the link directory as usual QQ , I don't want to print the link directory
