Why the name GNU ???
GNU (nōō) or wildebeest (wĭl'dəbēst'), substantial African impala, family Connochaetes. Its overwhelming head and bumped shoulders look like those of a wild ox, while the smaller rump resemble those of a stallion. The gnu has a facial hair, a short, erect mane, and a long, streaming tail. Individuals from both genders have substantial horns that bend down, outward, and up. Gnus are eating creatures and live in crowds on open meadow. They always move with an end goal to find new fields. Seeing a gnu relocation, with its unmistakable style of development, is maybe the most noteworthy gathering occasion in the set of all animals. There are two species. The mottled gnu, or blue wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus), is a vast, furious looking creature of S and E Africa. It stands 41/2 ft (135 cm) high at the shoulder and weighs around 500 lb (225 kg); its jacket is pale blue dark mottled with cocoa on the sides. The tail, mane, and whiskers are dark. In the northern assortment of this species (called the white-unshaven gnu), which extends as far N as Kenya, the whiskers is white. The streaked gnu lives in crowds of 20 to a few thousand people, regularly drove by one or a few old females and frequently discovered brushing with groups of zebra. Gnus are quick runners and crowds take part in expound hesitant moves when debilitated; their central predator is the lion. They brush in the morning and night, resting amid the warmth of the day; they frequently travel long separations looking for water. The white-followed gnu, or dark wildebeest (C. gnou), is a fairly littler creature once bounteous in S Africa. It is currently most likely wiped out in the wild, yet is secured in parks and saves, where its numbers are expanding. Gnu is the San (Bushman) term for these creatures; wildebeest is Afrikaans. Gnus are characterized in the phylum Chordata, subphylum Vertebrata, class Mammalia, arrange Artiodactyla, family Bovidae.
What is GNU??

The GNU project includes an operating system kernel, GNU HURD, which was the original focus of the Free Software Foundation (FSF). GNU is a working framework and a broad gathering of PC programming. GNU is made entirely out of free programming the vast majority of which is authorized under the GNU Project's own particular GPL.

Be that as it may, non-GNU pieces, most broadly Linux, can likewise be utilized with GNU programming; and since the bit is the least[citation needed] develop some portion of GNU, this is the means by which it is generally utilized. The mix of GNU programming and the Linux bit is normally known as Linux (or less every now and again GNU/Linux; see GNU/Linux naming debate).
Richard Stallman is the author of the GNU. Richard Stallman, the originator of the venture, sees GNU as a "specialized intends to a social end". Relatedly Lawrence Lessig states in first experience with the second release of Stallman's book Free Software, Free Society that in it Stallman has expounded on "the social parts of programming and how Free Software can make group and social equity."
