Operating Systems

This document outlines many of the key aspects of operating systems, and provides resources to learn more about each part. There are a lot of things missing (i'm on human), but these are enough to get you up and running. The intention is to be able to understand how you go from electricity entering your PC to being at a login screen you can see.

Most of this is relevent to linux primarily because it's open source, so there's much more information available about it, but these principles are the same across systems they just may have different names for things.

This gist describes various methods of getting similarity in python, and the advantages/disadvantages of each.

Pure Python

There is an implementation in python for the Ratcliff-Obershelp similarity algorith, that can be used to give a ratio of the fimilarity between two strings:

from difflib import SequenceMatcher

# A script to download many videos in parallel
import subprocess                   # Used to instantiate yt-dlp processes to download
from typing import List
from multiprocessing import Process # Used to parrallel process download subprocesses

# Confirm dependencies are installed
try:
    import yt_dlp # Needed for suprocessing
except ImportError:
    print("Youtube DLP not installed, please install with:\n\tpip install yt-dlp\n\t\tor\n\tsudo pip3 install yt-dlp")

This file will teach you how to setup a mariaDB docker container, import a .sql dump and visualize it.

Step 1 Docker containers

First create a compose.yml file with the following info:

# Use root/example as user/password credentials
version: '3.1'

Example in python can be seen here: https://github.com/Descent098/ezcv-http/tree/main/socket%20testing

Uses ezcv to generate html and then sockets as the http server

Endian formats

Networking data is in big endian, meaning the integers in hex values go from left to right So for example int x = 0xAABBCCDD would be understood as AA, BB, CC, DD (where each 2 letters is a byte value) In some host systems they operate using little endian meaning the order is reversed DD, CC, BB, AA and the values need to be reversed before being sent

Setting up Pi's

To setup your Pi initially install using the imager, after selecting 64-bit os (lite or normal) go into the settings.

Make sure you:

• set your hostname to what you want
• allow SSH
• set a password & username (I usually just leave the username as default)
• setup a WLAN (if not using ethernet, and make sure to set your country)
