Creating Crashers

 More about LINUX In the 20 years since Linux 1.0 first appeared, the open source operating system has become one of the major winners in the enterprise data center, alongside Microsoft Windows.In 2007, Linus Torvalds and the other Linux kernel committers were adding patches to the kernel at the rate of 86 per hour, or 1.43 per minute. InformationWeek reported in 2007 that Linux, then 16 years old, was the largest sustained software project in the world. Dan Frye, an IBM VP who tracked it, then said: "No other open source project has gotten this large or moved this fast. It's a first-of-a-kind developer community." I n 1991, computer science grad student Linus Torvalds closed himself in his bedroom to create Linux. He emerged many weeks later with 10,250 lines of code for a working kernel. Although much more work needed to be done, Linux was off and running. A 1.0 production version of the kernel came out in 1994. As of December 2014, 20 years later, the Linu...

10 reasons "Why Linux is the best operating system?" 1)Linux is almost always a free operating system with multiple sources distribution. 2)Linux is open source platforms with plenty of developers working on applications, functions, features and add-ons that are guaranteed to improve your user experience.  3)Low resource requirements.With Linux’s low-resource approach, you are less likely to encounter slower load times. 4)The best feature of Linux operating systems is its low susceptibility to virus and malware infestation.  5)If you do not want to ditch your Windows applications but would want to give Linux a try, there are many compatibility programs that allow Linux to run Windows programs like Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. You can run programs like Wine to load Microsoft Office programs and still enjoy the many benefits of Linux as the underlying operating system. 6)Linux offers a choice of benefits from affordability and flexibility to excellent packages inc...

Windows vs Linux Introduction:-People  often think of the continuous struggle between Windows and OSX. Which is the world’s most popular system? We put Windows and Linux head-to-head to see whether your business should make the switch to the open source operating system. Windows vs Linux: User-friendliness When it comes to user-friendliness and how accessible an OS is to first-time users, Windows is a clear cut above the competition.The fact that Microsoft has been producing its system software for nearly 30 years means that many aspects of it have become cultural touchstones. However, Linux is an operating system that gets simpler to use the more you understand about it, while Windows can sometimes be the opposite. Digging down past the basic tasks into more complicated functions can leave some people baffled. Microsoft, to its credit, has spent the past few years simplifying the more confusing and labyrinthine elements of its software, and generally making it m...

          Linux operating system  Linux is one of popular version of UNIX operating System. It is open source as its source code is freely available. It is free to use. Linux was designed considering UNIX compatibility. Its functionality list is quite similar to that of UNIX. Components of Linux System Linux Operating System has primarily three components kernel Kernel − Kernel is the core part of Linux. It is responsible for all major activities of this operating system. It consists of various modules and it interacts directly with the underlying hardware. Kernel provides the required abstraction to hide low level hardware details to system or application programs. system library System Library − System libraries are special functions or programs using which application programs or system utilities accesses Kernel's features. These libraries implement most of the functionalities of the operating system and do not requires kernel module...

More than 20 years ago,Linus Torvalds sparked an open source revolution with a short email declaring he was doing a new project "Just for Fun."Today Linux powers 98% of the world's super computers,most of the servers powering the internet,the majority of financial trades worldwide and tens of millions of Android mobile phones and consumer devices.In short Linux is everywhere. I am also using LINUX.
