What is Operating System?
An operating system is the foundational software that manages a computer's hardware and software resources, providing common services for various programs. It acts as an intermediary between users and hardware, handling tasks like process scheduling, memory management, file systems, and device control. By abstracting the complexity of physical components, it allows applications to run consistently across different environments.
