Table of contents: title: A batch file is a collection of commands written to a file or the command prompt to be executed.It was orginated back in the days of DOS. It is a text based programming language, not so nice  to use with a few commands. It is used in executing sequence of commands in a series. Although text based it can do a little thing within the hands of experts. It has got some powerful commands such as for,set,debug,etc. But mainly it is of no comparison with the advanced programming languages such as c,c++,etc. It only perform to its minimum with the user's input.
