$ chmod +x myscript.sh or $ chmod 755 myscript.sh This command gives the user permission to execute the script.
Step 3: Running Your Script To run your script, navigate to the directory where the script is saved and type: $ ./myscript.sh This will execute your script, and you should see the output:
