Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Linux is an open-source operating system, meaning that its source code can be freely accessed, distributed, and modified by anyone. This is in contrast to a proprietary operating system, such as Windows or macOS, which is owned and controlled by a specific company and has restricted access to its source code. Linux is also not an application software program, but rather a system software that manages the hardware, software resources, and services of a computer system.
