Do you own a Windows computer?
Have you heard of Command Prompt, or MS-DOS, or the DOS prompt?
It is like Bash Scripting on Linux or Korn Shell scripting on Unix

in Windows.
If you are a beginner you need to start slowly, and in this
tutorial we will only do benign commands that, for the most part,
read rather than write anything.
We’ll do a bit of:
cd
echo
cd [place]
dir
type
more
tasklist
vol

out for you.
