UNIX:- Created in the late 1960s by Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie at Bell Laboratories, Unix is a server-oriented operating system that was aimed to support a multi-user environment. The architecture behind Unix was to provide a simple modular operating system, yet sophisticated, to support an array of multi-user and network tasks.
LINUX:-Linux is a variant of Unix, created by Linus Torvalds, that shares common characteristics but is not identical by any means. It can run on a variety of hardware from Intel to PowerPC CPU systems. The most significant aspect about Linux is that the kernel or the core of the operating is freely distributed so developers all over the globe can modify the source code and use it for their own purposes without any licensing or IP concerns
i think it will be sufficient for your interview..
i dont know much about the C & C++ bcoz i am basically a system admin guy.

pgmtexture(1) General Commands Manual pgmtexture(1)
NAME
pgmtexture - calculate textural features on a portable graymap
SYNOPSIS
pgmtexture [-d d] [pgmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable graymap as input. Calculates textural features based on spatial dependence matrices at 0, 45, 90, and 135 degrees for a
distance d (default = 1). Textural features include:
(1) Angular Second Moment,
(2) Contrast,
(3) Correlation,
(4) Variance,
(5) Inverse Difference Moment,
(6) Sum Average,
(7) Sum Variance,
(8) Sum Entropy,
(9) Entropy,
(10) Difference Variance,
(11) Difference Entropy,
(12, 13) Information Measures of Correlation, and
(14) Maximal Correlation Coefficient.
Algorithm taken from:
Haralick, R.M., K. Shanmugam, and I. Dinstein. 1973. Textural features for image classification. IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and
Cybertinetics, SMC-3(6):610-621.
BUGS
The program can run incredibly slow for large images (larger than 64 x 64) and command line options are limited. The method for finding
(14) the maximal correlation coefficient, which requires finding the second largest eigenvalue of a matrix Q, does not always converge.
