Issue
I am a noob in linux and right now I am using a raspberry pi with raspbian to learn about it. I am trying the commands to install and uninstall packages (apt) but i have the following doubt.
Is there a way to differentiate between packages that I have installed and packages that were automatically installed because they are dependencies?
Thanks

Probably not, and that should not matter. Suppose you have some package foo that has been installed as a dependency for bar. A few days latter, you might want to install foo (and since it is already installed, nothing will happen).
