Bash (Bourne Again Shell) is a widely-used command-line interpreter for Unix-like operating systems, including Linux. It serves as both a command processor and a scripting language, allowing users to execute commands, automate tasks, and write scripts to manage system operations. Bash is the default shell on many Linux distributions and is known for its compatibility with the Bourne shell (sh) while adding enhancements such as command history, tab completion, and scripting capabilities. Bash scripts are commonly used for system administration, automating repetitive tasks, and managing complex processes.
