Operating system (commonly abbreviated to either OS or O/S)
is an interface between hardware and user; it is responsible
for the management and coordination of activities and the
sharing of the resources of the computer. The operating
system acts as a host for computing applications that are
run on the machine. As a host, one of the purposes of an
operating system is to handle the details of the operation
of the hardware.
