Assignment Toyshell

Prafulla saxena completed an assignment for building a toy shell. The code implements a basic shell that can execute commands like date, ls -l, cat, pwd, cd, and ps. The shell uses fork to create child processes that execute the commands. Output is printed to show the child running and results of commands. Testing showed the shell works as expected for various commands and changing directories.
