exporting functions

Bash, or the Bourne Again SHell, is a powerful command line tool that allows users to control and script operations in Linux environments. One advanced feature of Bash scripting is the ability to define functions, which are reusable blocks of code. Not only can these functions be used in a single script, but they can also be exported to other scripts or shell instances.
