Kernel is the part of the Operating System(OS) that
interacts directly with the hardware of computer through
device drivers that are built into the kernel
Major functions of kernel are:
1. To manage computer memory
2. To maintain file system
3. To handel errors
4. To perform input and output services
5. To allocate the resources of the computer(such as CPU,
input/output devices etc.) among users
