====== BASH - Output - Display output ======

The **echo** command is used for displaying information in bash. 

It is similar to the C function **‘printf’** and provides many common options, including escape sequences and re-direction.

<code bash>
#!/bin/bash
echo "Printing text"
echo -n "Printing text without newline"
echo -e "\nRemoving \t special \t characters\n"
</code>

**NOTE:**  The **-e** option is used for telling echo that the string passed to it contains special characters and requires extended functionality.
