Abstract#

Bash is a command-line shell and scripting language used to interact with the operating system through text commands. In this session, we will learn how to write Bash scripts that automate tasks, use variables and arguments, make decisions, repeat actions, and combine useful commands such as grep, find, wc, or sort. By the end, we will be able to write a simple Bash script that automates some of our astronomical codes without needing manual input.
