At first, the computer did not have an operating system, and people controlled the computer through various operation buttons. Later, assembly language appeared and its compiler was built into the computer. The operator entered the program into the computer through perforated paper tape to compile. These computers built into the language can only be run by the operators themselves, which is not conducive to the sharing of equipment and programs. In order to solve this problem, the operating system appeared, which well realizes the sharing of programs and the management of computer hardware resources, so that people can operate the computer from a higher level without paying attention to its underlying operation.

Operating system is an indispensable system software of modern computer, and it is the soul of computer. Modern computers explain people's orders through the operating system, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the computer. Almost all applications are also operating system-based.

Second, the ancient overlord of operating system-- DOS

DOS seems to be the only old bird that has ever come into contact with DOS, and the newcomer to computer only knows a little about it. It once occupied most of the field of PC operating system, and it can be seen on the vast majority of computers around the world. Because the DOS system does not need a very strong hardware system to support it, it can be used by both business and home users. Although it is not an excellent operating system from the current point of view, the downward compatibility of Microsoft software determines that when something goes wrong with Windows, it often needs to be solved under DOS, so it is necessary to understand and learn DOS.

Third, operating system contemporary tycoon-Windows

Since Microsoft launched Windows 1.0 in 1985, Windows system has experienced more than ten years of ups and downs. From Windows 3.x, which runs under DOS at first, to Windows xp, Vista, Windows 7 Magi Windows, which is popular all over the world, it has almost replaced the seat that DOS once played, and become the operating system tycoon in the new area.

The iconic icon is a cute little penguin. Because of its free open source code, it occupies a large market in many advanced applications. This is also seen by the industry as the hope of breaking Microsoft's Windows monopoly.

Fifth, the magical spirit-- FreeBSD

FreeBSD is a kind of Unix-like system running on x86 platform. It is marked by a mythical elf, developed from the BSD Unix system and written by the Berkeley School of California (Berkeley). The first version was officially launched in 1993. BSD Unix and Unix System V are the two main streams of the Unix operating system, and the later Unix systems are derivatives of these two systems. This operating system is mainly used on the web server side and is not suitable for individual users.

6. BeOS, a versatile master of art
