Hallo again steemian! Today we will discuss the linux is a best for education computer operating system, shall we discuss it directly below:
We start from a general question:
What is linux?
source: apprize.info
Linux is a computer operating system such as Windows and OSX, if seen from the work with Linux can be installed on all computer and laptop such as windows.
Linux is not the same as operating system Windows and OSX, Linux development model built together. even a portion of the application made by the community, volunteers, and these government organisations around the world. even we could contribute to developing the Linux operating system.
Linux is basically a Karnel, a bridge that connects between the hardware and computer software. Karnel is in created by one of the students of the University of Helsinki named Linus Torvald year 1991. He then give the results of his findings in the internet to be developed by anyone.
At the time of this now many say Linux is an operating system, but linux is just an absence of Karnel software, therefore, if we want to say Linux is the operating system then it should use the GNU beginning the word Linux become GNU/Linux because GNU greatly contribute in developing software and applications. Even at this moment of Android has also been using Karnel Linux.
What is a Linux Distro?
Abbreviation of the linux distribution is a package of the Linux operating system complete with Karnel and software in the manage and developed by the developer of such distributions. The developers of Karnel unites Linux and opensource software like Desktop Environment, Office, Media player, mail organizer etc.
Small a question arises as to why each person develops his own distro? as they adjust the needs of linux use it then several linux distributions myself or (edit from distro ever) derivatives like some linux distro list example below who are most interested in by Linux users in the world .
1. Mint

2. Manjaro

3. Debian

4. Ubuntu

5. Antergos, and many more other linux disto.

If you want to see and try the look of Ubuntu linux can visit the following link: http://tour.ubuntu.com
Okay now we are going to choose a suitable distro for use as a beginner, don't confuse in determining the first option you should try Ubuntu because it is very suitable for beginners. If later you already adept you should try linux the others so you get the experience of the other. If you still hesitate to install in your PC or laptop don't worry we can try Linux with a Live CD or boot via Flash. not so awesome!
On linux you will find new experiences and new knowledge as Karnel, terminal, desktop environment, linux, repository command, etc.
Where can I get linux?
If you want to get linux there are two ways that you can download her first on the official site of each linux distribution and the second you can order it on a CD that provides a Linux shop.
Why Linux?
Because the operating system that this one is free and can be use to anyone and everyone can give its contribution to the development of linux in the future due to develop his crucible then in say is free software that closely relation to the concept of open source software in his usual brief with FOSS. This is very different from development in the proprietary development company by doing (closed source) which are paid.
So if we conclude the benefits of using linux can be:
1. Free from viruses
On the Linux operating system of management authority is very smart because at the time of installing a piece of software we are obliged to fill in a password so that the virus would not be able to work with it. There is no guarantee of 100% use Linux can be free from the virus due to the nature of the GNU/Linux anyone can report it to the developer.
2. Stable
Linux can live for days or years without having to reboot or shut down, because in so many Linux in use in a wide range of provider web server. There is no perfect system of declaration is correct, but we can see some servers use linux doesn't need to reboot even years. If we install linux with match your personal needs and often leave it you don't have to reboot because it's not being a problem.
3. Fast
at the time of booting linux including very quickly from on an in-flight operations more because linux uses ext4 as file system managing his manager so that in the long run no matter the speed of linux will not be reduced
4. Free
Linux is free software (Open source) in other words linux open license using the General Public License (GPL) license with this free people use allot even modifying it. So this is best way for educate because it's free and can be modify.
