both are running under bash. The #!/bin/csh line is a regular shell comment, it does not affect the script in any way. The shell looks at the first two bytes of the file to determine what type of executable it is. If the first two bytes are #!, it is an interpreted program, and the rest of the line lists the path to the interpreter.
