PIPE- "|" :- **. It is an IPC(Inter Process Communication).

Input of the second command.
**. Like wise 3rd, 4th, 5th.....nth.
tee :- **. tee generates two outputs always.

Answer / ravikumar reddy .dubba
pipe(|):--pipe is the symbol which is used to combine 2
filters,2 commands or filter and command,
When we combine two operations by using pipe, first
operation o/p acts standard i/p for second operation ,and
second operation gives Standard o/p,
Tee:--tee is the command, we can copy a file data to
multiple files at a time
