Summary

In this chapter, we introduced the concept of variables, types, and assignments. We also covered some basic Bash programming primitives for for loops, while, and switch statements. Later on, we learned what functions are, how they are used, and how to pass

In the next chapter, we will learn about several bolt-on technologies to make Bash even more extensive.
