Re: UNIX= Grand-daddy of all modern operating systems?

C++, eh? When I first studied C (not ++, and pre-ANSI days), I got a book from a Walden bookstore on the far west side of town -- and I live in northeast Phoenix -- because it was the only bookstore in town I could find *any* book on C -- and it was not K&R -- in its collection of 20 or so compute

Re: UNIX- Grad-daddy of all modern operating systems?

BTW, I took my first programming class in 1966, three years before Unix was invented. I learned a programming language called SCATR for an IBM mainframe (the 360? or maybe that came later), which was pretty close to assembly language, and had to enter my programs on IBM punch cards which I would h

Re: UNIX- Grad-daddy of all modern operating systems?

Well, plenty of operating systems existed before Unix, which came into being starting in 1969. But before that there were all kinds of OS's. Microsoft borrowed and corrupted some perfectly good ideas from Unix, then proceded to mess them up royally. With Apple there is pre-OS X and after OS X. OS
