Answer to Question 1

The most common definition of information is that information is knowledge derived
from data. It can also be defined as the data presented in a meaningful context. The data can be
processed by summing, ordering, averaging, grouping, comparing, or other similar operations.

Answer to Question 2

Linux is a version of Unix that was developed by the open source community. This
community is a loosely coupled group of programmers who mostly volunteer their time to
contribute code to develop and maintain Linux. The open source community owns Linux, and
there is no fee to use it. Linux can run on client computers, but usually only when budget is of
paramount concern. By far, Linux is most popular as a server OS. According to
DistroWatch.com, the five most popular versions of Linux as of 2015 were Linux Mint, Ubuntu,
Debian GNU/Linux, openSUSE, and Fedora.
