Using BASH's getopt to simplify argument parsing
Presented By: Steven Lembark
getopts is a bash built-in that parses options and their arguments passed to a script, processing them sequentially within a while loop. It provides a structured way to handle complex input in BASH shell scripts.
Typeset is a built-in Bash command. You can use the typeset command to declare variables and set their attributes. If no variable name is specified, it displays their values.
