Welcome to the Batch Scripting for Beginners course!


In this course, you will learn the fundamentals of batch scripting on Windows. You will learn how to create, edit, and run batch scripts, as well as how to use various commands and tools to automate tasks.

To get started with batch scripting, let's create a simple "Hello, World!" program.
1. Open Notepad or any other text editor.
2. Type the following command:

@echo off
echo Hello, World!
pause

3. Save the file as hello_world.bat

To run the "Hello, World!" program, double-click on the file. Alternatively, you can open a command prompt, navigate to the directory where the batch script is located, and enter the name of the batch script.

For example, to run the hello_world.bat script, navigate to the directory where the file is located and enter the following command:

hello_world.bat


You will see the message "Hello, World!" displayed on the screen.

This is a simple example, but it illustrates the basics of batch scripting. From here, you can learn how to create more complex scripts and automate tasks on your Windows system.
