How to change command line prompt name and add path of current directory after name?

Question

Currently my command line prompt looks like this nuve@nuve-Inspiron-5547:~$ but I want to change it Azer's Terminal:"Path of current directory". How can I do this? I need exact code line to add to bashrc file.

There's an answer to the linked question which shows exactly how to put the current working directory at the end of the prompt. — kos, Feb 11 '16 at 12:53
