Angry zipped or unzipped file

Is there a way you can tell if a file
is still zipped or it's unzipped

I have a file called ssss.zip and I would like to know if this file is still zipped or if it's unzipped?

I'm on IBM AIX/RS6000

files with .zip extension are zipped files
so ssss.zip file is a zipped file

you can unzip ssss.zip by using unzip command

the syntax is

unzip ssss.zip

read the man unzip for more details

You should also be able to run `file` against the zip file and it should tell you.
