The simple way is via for loop (on one line but here it's shown in multiple lines for clarity):

for i in date,grade; do
 apt up$i
done

The smart way is to make an alias in ~/.bashrc for these two commands and forget about retyping it ever again:

alias upgrade=' apt update && apt upgrade'

  Thanks. Alias is a good idea, but is there a way I can do it in the terminal with just one line without use an alias?

  @e200 I'm pretty sure one could do it via elaborate and obscure bash tricks but there's no practical value to doing so.

  Just do the for loop in one line. for i in date,grade; do sudo apt up$i; done

  You both right. But, it does not seems to be a good solution since its more easy to execute an apt update && apt upgrade rather then an for i in date,grade; do sudo apt up$i; done
