1. Is run by /bin/sh
2. Checks if /bin/bash exists, and prints a message if it does
3. Checks if /bib/bash is a directory, prints a message if it is, and another if it isn't.

-f checks if the argument is a regular file
-d checks if the argument is a directory
-e checks if the argument exists

See e.g. http://ss64.com/bash/test.html
