Was wondering if someone could tell me what the difference is between these two. Cannot seem an exact answer on the net. Command Line to me means input line and pipeline is the output?
Thanks for the help
A command pipeline is when you connect the output of one command with the input of another:
$ cat myfile | sort
is one trivial example
A linux command line simply refers to the shell prompt.

I m learning very basic Linux command where i was typing very basic command ,and i don't know exactly what i typed or happened i got only ">" in my terminal.
Don't know what i should type?
Thanks
This is shown when the terminal is expecting you to finish typing in your command. For example:
git commit -m 'asdasdasdasd <enter>
will lead to a > shown in the next line, because the terminal is waiting for you to finish the input (because you haven't typed in the closing ' sign).
What command have you typed? Try Ctrl+C .

Is there a way in which I can use linux command like ls -l on the window command prompt ? or maybe use powerful commands like grep on windows ?
Cygwin will do what you're looking for
MinGW/MSys is a minimal unix environment.

When double-tab, the terminal shows a list of command candidates, but the cursor line also moves downwards. How to make it stay on the same line while showing all the candidates below?
I'm guessing there must be some config file that can specify this behavior. This also applies to the case when ctrl-c in the middle of typing a command. I'd like the cursor to stay on the current line.
You need shell with rich terminal support.
For example Z Shell. Bash build with readline library for user interaction and it operate only line-by-line...
This behavior allow to run Bash on most platform as does not require special abilities from terminal.

%Mem is same for some of the processes, The Consolidation of these numbers are higher than 100.Please explain what does this mean?
You can find everything you need to know about that command and the meaning of the columns, here: http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl1_top.htm

there is a system wide command available
man top
