What can you tell about shell variables?..

Answer / Kalpna Singh

Shell variables are named containers that store data in Unix-like operating systems. They allow users and programs to store and manipulate values for later use. Shell variables are often used to customize the behavior of shell scripts or interactively modify the current session. Shell variables can be local (only available within a single script) or global (available across multiple scripts).
