    System calls allow programs to request services from the operating system kernel. There are three main types of operating systems: single-user, multi-user, and multi-tasking. Common system calls include read and write which allow programs to interact with files and devices. The kernel is the core of the operating system that manages hardware resources while the shell is a user-interface for interacting with the operating system.
