Linux Beginners Guide
Two important developments in modern computing occurred in 1969 at Bell Labs, a part of AT&T. A team developed the UNIX operating system, and the C programming language. The two combined
are the foundations of modern operating systems. Unix was designed in a way to be implemented both on servers, as well as computers meant for individual use. The single most important contribution of UNIX, was to create standards on which independent software and hardware manufacturing companies could work
on. This basically meant that a software programmer in one country knew his program would work on hardware from another country. UNIX was very influential, and widely used because of the
complete documentation provided with the operating system.
