# Shell\&Bash

#### What's is bash and What is shell and the difference

> Bash (`bash`) is one of many available (yet the most commonly used) Unix shells. Bash stands for "**B**ourne **A**gain **SH**ell", and is a replacement/improvement of the original Bourne shell (`sh`).
>
> Shell scripting is scripting in *any* shell, whereas Bash scripting is scripting specifically for Bash. In practice, however, "shell script" and "bash script" are often used interchangeably, unless the shell in question is not Bash.
