Bash Script
Introduction to Bash Scripting
Bash scripts are files containing commands that you run in the terminal. They automate tasks and make your work more efficient.
Creating a Bash Script
To create a script, start with the shebang #!
followed by the path to Bash, usually /bin/bash
. Make sure your script has execute permissions.
Example: Simple Bash Script
#!/bin/bash
# This script prints a greeting message
echo "Hello, World!"
Using Variables in Scripts
Variables store data that your script can use. Assign values using the =
sign without spaces.
Example: Using Variables
#!/bin/bash
# Assign a value to a variable
name="World"
echo "Hello, $name!"
