what is shell?

Answer Posted / prasant

The shell reads the command from the user and interprets
them as a request to execute a program.so bcoz shell plays
this role,it is called as a command line i9nterpreter..

Besides this shell is also a programming language.

it acts as an inretface between user and kernel.
three most widely used unix shells are Bourne shell,korn
shell and c shell.
