About Batch File
Batch Files were introduced with the early versions of DOS in the 1980s to automate repetitive command-line tasks. They evolved as a simple way for users to execute multiple commands sequentially without manual intervention, enhancing productivity and simplifying system management.
Strengths of Batch Files include simplicity, ease of use, and integration with Windows systems. Weaknesses are limited functionality, lack of advanced features, and platform dependency. Competitors include PowerShell, Python scripts, and Unix shell scripts.
