Is apt-get update and upgrade necessary?

Question

If I've already executed both apt update and apt upgrade, do I need to do the same with apt-get?

@luv.preet In terms of typing apt is reduced because it saves typing 4 characters, but in terms of functionality apt is increased because it has additional features that apt-get doesn't have. — karel, Sep 05 '17 at 12:16

apt and apt-get use the same repository configurations.

So apt update and and apt-get update will do the same with the same repository
