Thanks for ur reply.Actually i don't mind which kind of shell to learn,I learn bash because it's popular in Linux,Is there big difference between korn shell and Bash?If not,I would learn korn shell,eitherSmilieand i found a book named "Mastering UNIX shell scripting",seems about korn shell.

I would say they are similar, but I like ksh93 better for scripting as it is quite a bit faster and I think it is more advanced.. Bash is more prominent in the Linux world, but you can use ksh93 there too. There is a thread about this:
