What is PING commend in networking

PING 

The ping command is used to see if a remote address is accessible. It is also used to see how long it takes to communicate over the network to the remote address. By pinging an address, you can tell if the network is down or if it is unusually slow. 

For example, to find out how long it takes for your computer to connect to www.google.com, you can type this in the command window: 
ping google.com 

And the response looks something like this
Pinging google.com [64.233.187.99] with 32 bytes of data:
