Bash Shell Scripting - Using && and ||

This video tutorial explains how to use logical operators like AND and OR on the command line. It demonstrates executing commands with semicolons, which run subsequent commands regardless of the first command's success. The tutorial then covers using logical AND (&&) to execute a second command only if the first command is successful, and logical OR (||) to run a second command if the first fails. These techniques are useful for managing command execution based on success or failure conditions.
