It would take a very long time to learn all of the Unix commands, and frankly, that isn't necessary. Most Unix users have a subset of commands they use all the time, and that is how they learn them.

Some versions of Unix are oriented towards real time applications, and processes in Unix can be "promoted" to real time status if desired. Other than that, you would have to define more precisely what you mean by real time for an operating system.

Unix was first developed in assembly language in 1973. Academic circles studied Unix around this time and even into the early 1980's. It was first licensed in 1974.

Because Linux is actually more popular in most fields these days than certified Unix.

UUCP is the abbriviation of Unix to Unix copy. It is worldwide email system called UUCP or Unix to Unix copy.This email system was developed for the operating system called Unix.

Unix work is performed by users of the unix system, for application and system programs, or anything that requires a Unix system.

UNIX was created in 1969 by Ken Thompson, Brain Khernighan, and Dennis Ritchie, who at that time were working at AT&T's Bell Laboratories.
Linux was created in 1991 by a Finnish student named Linus Torvalds, just for fun, and is based around the designs of Unix as it had evolved from 1969 to around that year. Fun factoid, around 1991 a lot of Unix researchers were actually experimenting with microkernel designs, so Linus wasn't entirely following the bleeding edge Unix trends of the time when he created the Linux kernel.

Unix configuration is the process of tailoring a freshly installed version of Unix to your particular environment. Each Unix system may do that differently.
1 answer
Solaris is a specific version of Unix; the term 'Unix' refers to a classification, and several vendors provide a Unix-like environment. So, in a sense, Unix and Solaris are the same thing.
1 answer
There is no "default" Unix shell. Different Unix vendors shipped different shells.

Unix is not open source, it is proprietary. Linux is the open-source version of Unix.

Unix was created first. The C programming language was created for Unix.
1 answer
That would depend greatly on what version of Unix you are talking about. Unix systems have been around for about 40 years. In that time, computers have gotten more powerful, and the Unix systems have gained more functionality and taken on new uses. This means that anything from a PDP-7 with 9KB of RAM and a tape reel to an HP 9000 Superdome with 128 processor cores and 2 TB of RAM can run a version of Unix.

1. System V
2. BSD
3. countless unix-like, unix-based, unix-compatible, unix-inspired systems (linux, AIX, Sinix, Xenix, Dynix, Solaris, MacOs etc)
1 answer
Not really. AIX is IBM's patented version of Unix, with their own add-ons and features. The basics look a lot like Unix but legally they are not Unix. One could say it is a Unix variant.
1 answer
I don't know that one could say it is "unsuitable". There are some versions of Unix that are optimized for real time activity, but in general Unix was designed as a multi-user operating system that did not have the constraints you would find in a real-time environment.
It is optimized for many users, but not necessarily for real-time event handling. Depending on the situation that the real-time calls for it might be more efficient to use an operating system or environment that was designed just for that purpose, rather than using a general multi-user system.
In Unix, setting up a real-time program would mean degrading the performance of other users, since the real-time program would need priority. Although you could do it, it really isn't in the nature of Unix to behave well this way.

Since there isn't a UNIX 95 or UNIX 98 per se, I think you are referring to Windows 95 or Windows 98..

In order to legally be called a "Unix" system, operating systems must undergo a rigorous and expensive certification procedure. "Unix-like" refers to systems that have an architecture similar to Unix, but have not undergone certification.

"Portable Operating System Inferance (for Unix)
1 answer
Unix is inherently portable; this means that a program, script, or process may be moved from Unix system to Unix system with little effort or change (hence - portable).
1 answer
One would use the Unix time and date function for a date in the C programming language to display the date and time from an application. When a user types the name of a program and date function is called a display will shown on the screen.

The TCP/IP protocol stack was first added to Berkeley Unix in 1981 (4.1a BSD); the official release (4.2BSD) was in August, 1983. The term "NOS" did not exist at the time.

Linux, Minix, Coherent, FreeBSD, etc. These are all clones of Unix
2 answers
In a sense, I suppose you could say it was a descendant of Unix; it is actually a clone of the Unix environment and Operating System.
1 answer
Unix came first; Linux is a clone of the Unix Operating System.
