    -----------------------------------------------

    To start with bash script you should know how the bash script start

    to define the script interpreter enter the prefix with path of bash as show down

    `#!/bin/bash`

    way of executing script

    -> Their are many way to run a script


    giving it a `chmod +x` to make file executable by typing `./filename` to run or `$
    bash filename.sh`

    #RELATIVE VS ABSOLUTE PATH

    #BASH SHELL SCRIPT

    A very simple program to print hello world as all in other programing language

    ~> create a file name `filename.sh`


    ~> enter our program as shown below to output hello world

    ```
    #!/bin/bash
    echo "hello world !"
    ```
    echo behave as print in bash

    ~>make it executable with the chmod cmd and then run it.
    ```

    chmod +x filename.sh
    ./filename.sh

    ```

    #VARIABLES

    Creating a simple bash script

    ```
    #!/bin/bash
    greeting="Welcome"
    user=$(whoami)
    day=$(date +%A)
    echo "$greeting back $user! Today is $day, which is the best day of the entire
    week!"

    echo "Your Bash shell version is: $BASH_VERSION. Enjoy!"


    ```

    First, we have declared a variable greeting and assigned a string value Welcome to
    it. The next variable user contains a value of user name running a shell session.
    This is done through a technique called command substitution. Meaning that the
    output of the whoami command will be directly assigned to the user variable. The
    same goes for our next variable day which holds a name of today's day produced by
    date +%A command.

    The second part of the script utilises the echo command to print a message while
    substituting variable names now prefixed by $ sign with their relevant values. In
    case you wonder about the last variable used $BASH_VERSION know that this is a so
    called **internal variable** defined as part of your shell.

    -------------------------------------------------
    # Quick Tip:

    Never name your private variables using UPPERCASE characters. This is because
    uppercase variable names are reserved for internal shell variables, and you run a
    risk of overwriting them. This may lead to the dysfunctional or misbehaving script
    execution.

    ===========
    =================================
    ================================================

    ${parameter}

    this is called parameter expansion


    it is required bcz our variable $variable is followed by characters which are part
    of its name.
    ` ${user}_home_backup_{$date}.txt`

    &> is used to ouutput the stderr and stdout to file
