Description
Bash is a popular Unix shell, widely installed as the system default command-line interface on many Linux distributions. The shell is an interactive interface for users to execute commands on the command line and is also used by various Unix processes and systems to execute commands and scripts.
Other common Unix shells include the Z shell (zsh), C shell (csh), tcsh (an improved variant of the C shell), and the Korn shell (ksh).
