would spit out 5.8 for Solaris 8 (SunOS 5.8) and the Kernel revision for Linux.
Will output today's run queue sizes since midnight if the sa1(8) and sa2(8) cron jobs have been set up to log sar(1) data at regular intervals and will display historical data if pointed at a prior date's sar data file, otherwise use:
Where 5 is the seconds between measurements and the 4 is the number of measurements to display, the first column headed "r" shows the number of processes waiting to run.

LEARN ABOUT SUNOS
uname
uname(2) System Calls uname(2)NAME
uname - get name of current operating system
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/utsname.h>
int uname(struct utsname *name);
DESCRIPTION
The uname() function stores information identifying the current operating system in the structure pointed to by name.
The uname() function uses the utsname structure, defined in <sys/utsname.h>, whose members include:
char sysname[SYS_NMLN];
char nodename[SYS_NMLN];
char release[SYS_NMLN];
char version[SYS_NMLN];
char machine[SYS_NMLN];
The uname() function returns a null-terminated character string naming the current operating system in the character array sysname. Simi-
larly, the nodename member contains the name by which the system is known on a communications network. The release and version members
further identify the operating system. The machine member contains a standard name that identifies the hardware on which the operating sys-
tem is running.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, a non-negative value is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
The uname() function will fail if:
EFAULT The name argument points to an illegal address.
