A computer can't function without an operating system

A total lie usually mentioned in computer textbooks when talking about operating systems. Older computers sometimes do not have an operating system, so this is totally a lie because these computers can still function. Also, even modern computers can make use of the Basic Input Output System (BIOS) to do some basic tasks such as viewing and changing the date.

School textbooks: "A computer can't function without an operating system!"
1930s computer operator: "wtf is that"

Root account

The account in Unix and Unix-like operating systems that has access to most of the system (or not all). With this account, you can do many things that normal users without sudo "super user do" access cannot do, such as editing configuration files, software management, user management, and more. It is usually created by the system after the OS installation is finished, however the password may be set during the installation or after the installation.

If you know the password for the root account, do not play with the system unless you know what you're doing.
