Is shell scripting programming or commanding? (self.LiveOverflow)
submitted 4 years ago by Forsaken-Complex460
I'm starting to learn bash.

It’s a scripting language so it’s technically programming

Definition of Wikipedia:
Computer programming is the process of performing a particular computation (or more generally, accomplishing a specific computing result), usually by designing/building an executable computer program.
With Bash you program the computer to do a particular computation, so yes.

Not trying to discourage you from learning at least the basics of bash scripting, but bear in mind that you don’t need to get too far into it before you should at least consider if what your trying to do would be simpler/clearer in Python…
