Goal: Learn to use shell variables and source them

Let's practice using and sourcing shell variables

Part 1: Sourcing a script full of shell variables

1. Source projectAlias.sh by running the command source projectAlias.sh
2. View the current aliases by running the command alias
3. What do you see?

Part 2: Use the aliases

1. Use the fooTOP alias by typing it in the terminal?
2. What do you see?
3. Now use the barTOP alias by typing it in the terminal?
4. Did it work? If not explain why and figure out a way you could fix it?

Part 3: echo sourced variables

1. Let's use the sourced variables in a statement: echo "I enjoy eating an $fruit after a tasty $meal for dinner"
2. What do you see?
3. Use the shell variables you sourced earlier to print a statement in Bash you created yourself.
