Unix operating system is a multitasking, multiuser operating system developed in the late 1960s. AT&T Bell Labs is the developer of the Unix Operating System.
– The Unix Operating System is the oldest operating system that has ever existed.– Unix was firstly written in the low-level PDP-7 assembler language before it was rewritten in 1972 with the new C programming language.
To start using Unix, you must set up a Unix account via your system administrator. Your Unix account is simply your office: it’s more like your download “place’ in the Unix network/environment.
At the end of the 1960s, the young engineer at AT&T Bell Labs, Kenneth Thompson, worked on the Multiplexing Information and Computer Services (Multics) operating system.
