Hello, MS-DOS
Meet the C:\> prompt and make the computer say something.
C:\> is the prompt. It is telling you two things: you are on drive C (the hard disk), and you are in \, the very top of it. You never type the prompt yourself, only what comes after it.
ECHO prints whatever you give it. Unlike bash, MS-DOS does not need quotes around the words: everything after ECHO is the message, punctuation and all.
MS-DOS commands are traditionally written in CAPITALS, which is how they appeared in every manual, so that is what this course does. DOS does not actually mind, and neither does this terminal: dir works as well as DIR.
ECHO Hello, world!Prints the words back to you.HELPLists what this terminal understands.Your task
