The "calendar" tool is a command-line utility that displays a calendar for a specific month or year.

In this command, the variable "${7}" is being used as an argument. It refers to the seventh positional parameter passed to the script or command. The value assigned to this variable will determine the month or year for which the calendar is displayed.

Overall, this command will show a calendar in the "before" format for the month or year specified by the seventh positional parameter.
