    Defination of command with syntax.
    Command :
    A command is an instruction given by a user telling a computer to do something, such a run a
    single program or a group of linked programs. Commands are generally issued by typing them in
    at the command line and then pressing the ENTER key, which passes them to the shell.

    There are difine following type command:

    cal- Display a calendar


    cat - Concatenate and print (display) the content of files
    cd - Change Directory
    clear- Clear terminal screen
    cp - Copy one or more files to another location
    kill - Stop a process from running
    mkdir - Create new folder(s)
    mv - Move or rename files or directories
    pwd - Print Working Directory
    rmdir- Remove folder(s)

    Syntax :

    In computer science, the syntax of a computer language is the set of rules that defines the
    combinations of symbols that are considered to be a correctly structured document or fragment in
    that language. This applies both to programming languages, where the document
    represents source code, and markup languages, where the document represents data.
    The syntax of a language defines its surface form.[1] Text-based computer languages are based on
    sequences of characters, while visual programming languages are based on the spatial layout and
    connections between symbols (which may be textual or graphical). Documents that are
    syntactically invalid are said to have a syntax error.
    Syntax – the form – is contrasted with semantics – the meaning. In processing
    computer languages, semantic processing generally comes after syntactic processing, but in some
    cases semantic processing is necessary for complete syntactic analysis, and these are done
    together or concurrently
