Course Overview
Unix Shell Language denotes the command syntax employed by the Unix shell, serving as a link between the user and the operating system. It enables individuals to run commands, explore the file structure, and streamline tasks effectively. The shell offers an interactive platform for executing instructions and can also be utilized for scripting, which involves crafting a sequence of commands in a text file to function as a program.
