How to extract parameters from the Terminal applying Shell Scripting

El Shell scripting, It refers to the execution of complex orders about him GNU / Linux Terminal (Console), it is very useful to automate routine and important activities within our GNU / Linux Operating System, which allows us to optimize our Resources and Time, that is, with what is contained here we will explore how from the terminal we can execute manual command orders that then allow us schedule / automate activities about a team saving Hours / Labor of manual or face-to-face execution, implementing said orders in a Bash Shell Script or compatible and explained in a practical and simple way.

We will cover as in a single command command CAN extract and display values ​​/ information from the Operating System / Hardware, which we can then implement within a Bash Shell script to automate a specific task. Focusing on the Best Practices necessary to obtain an excellent design of a Script in the way more efficient and practical.
