Linux is one of the most widely used operating systems. It was created
to provide a free or low-cost operating system for personal computer
users. Linus Torvalds published Linux on September 17, 1991, and it was
written in the C programming language. It has since earned a reputation
for being a high-performing and efficient system. This is a fairly
comprehensive operating system that includes a graphical user interface
(GUI), TCP/IP, the Emacs editor, and the X Window System, among other
features.
Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Red Hat Linux, SUSE Linux, Gentoo, Kali Linux,
and Linux Mint are some of the finest Linux distributions. Linux is a
very popular operating system today because of features such as
multiuser operating system management, multitasking paradigm,
multiprogramming concepts, and virtual memory. Many corporations and
individuals, as well as firms such as Canonical, use Linux for their
servers because of security concerns and positive feedback from the user
community. Linux is also used in mobile devices, smart TVs, etc.
