macos - where command not found os x

Question

Okay so the title is pretty self explanitory, when I type where ... as a command it returns

-bash: where: command not found

my current bash profile includes :

export PATH="/usr/local/lib:$PATH"
export PATH="/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/lib/node_modules/bin:$PATH"

I googled it for a while and found that most people just need /usr/bin and /usr/sbin which I have both of.

Any ideas?

"where" is a shell builtin for csh. Is that what you're really looking for?

"which" and "whereis" are under /usr/bin, and tell you where to find a given command.
