Bash Job Control, Utilities and Example Scripts
The commands you listed are a mix of job-control utilities (fg, jobs, suspend) and standard Linux utilities (df, more).
Here is an explanation of the syntax and purpose for each:
1. Job Control Commands 🛠️
Job control commands are shell built-ins (mostly in Bash, KornShell, etc.) used to manage processes that are currently running in the background or suspended in the current terminal session.
(a) fg (Foreground)
- Syntax:
fg [%job_id] - Purpose: The

Operating System Exam Notes: Scheduling and Memory Management
Alright Buddy 👍
Here are 4–5 line, exam-ready answers for each topic you listed:
Operating System Concepts: Part 1
1. FCFS (First Come First Serve) Scheduling
FCFS is a non-preemptive CPU scheduling algorithm where processes are executed in the order of their arrival. The process that arrives first gets the CPU first. It is simple to implement using a queue. However, it can cause long waiting times and the convoy effect.
2. SJF (Shortest Job First) Scheduling
SJF selects the process with the shortest

1. Types of OS
Operating systems can be classified based on their structure, usage, and capability:
Batch Operating System
- Jobs with similar needs are grouped (batched) and run together.
- No direct interaction between the user and the computer during job execution.
- Goal: Maximize CPU utilization.
- Example: Used in environments that process large, repetitive tasks, like payroll systems.
Time-Sharing (Multitasking) OS
- The CPU switches rapidly between multiple jobs (processes) to give each user the impression
Mastering Modular Programming and Data Structures in C
Unit 4: Modular Programming Concepts
Modular programming is a software design technique that divides a program into smaller, independent, and reusable units called modules or functions. Each module performs a specific task, which helps in organizing, testing, and debugging programs more efficiently. By breaking a large problem into manageable pieces, programmers can focus on one module at a time, reducing complexity and improving readability. Modules can be developed, tested, and maintained separately,

SQL Constraints and Implementation
Constraints are rules applied to columns to ensure Data Integrity. They are usually defined during the CREATE TABLE process.
| Constraint | SQL Implementation Example | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| NOT NULL | name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL | Ensures a column cannot have an empty value. |
| UNIQUE | email VARCHAR(50) UNIQUE | Ensures all values in a column are different. |
| PRIMARY KEY | id INT PRIMARY KEY | Uniquely identifies each row (implies NOT NULL + UNIQUE). |
| FOREIGN KEY | dept_id INT REFERENCES Dept(id) | Ensures the value exists |
