+To save the output of a command into a variable, use you have to use the following syntax:
+
+```bash
+DATE=$(date ...)
+```
+
+Replace `...` with your code.
+
+To read the `n`-th argument that is provided to a script you write, you have to use `$n`.
+
+Example script called `arg.sh`:
+
+```bash
+#!/usr/bin/bash
+
+echo "The first argument is: $1"

+
+When you run this script with an argument:
+
+```console
+$ ./arg.sh "Hello"
+The first argument is: Hello
