Features: Since the Renaissance, the long-standing scientific spirit and gradually formed academic norms have given Western countries a monopolistic advantage in various fields of natural science. It is also this tradition that has enabled the United States to produce a succession of leading figures and dominate the development of information technology over the past six decades. In the process of commercialization, the industry and academia in the U.S. have become increasingly closely integrated. Many of the giants in computer science are simultaneously at the forefront of both research and teaching, resulting in classic scientific works that not only outline the scope of research but also reveal the evolution of academia. These works adhere to academic norms while maintaining the individuality of scholars, and their value does not diminish over time. This book is an excellent introductory textbook on UNIX. The author provides a clear and in-depth analysis of all aspects of the UNIX operating system, systematically introducing the user interface of UNIX and the inner workings of the system. Starting from the most basic operations of UNIX, the book sequentially explains UNIX shell operations, text file editing, email sending and receiving, UNIX file and file system operations, input/output management, process management, network management, and editing of common shells. The appendices at the end of the book comprehensively introduce the terminal command parameters and options of UNIX, while the carefully designed in-chapter exercises and end-of-chapter questions reinforce commands, primitives, and concepts. This book is suitable as a textbook for undergraduate students in computer science.
