KERNAL is Commodore's name for the ROM-resident operating system core in its 8-bit home computers: from the original PET of 1977, followed by the extended but related versions used in its successors: the VIC-20; Commodore 64; Plus/4; Commodore 16; and Commodore 128.
The analysis highlights Description, Example and On device-independent I/O as prominent areas in the source structure around KERNAL.
Source areas are shown by the number of related topics found in each part of the analysis. Use smaller areas too: they can reveal specialized angles and content gaps.
Smaller areas are not necessarily less important. They contain fewer connections in this analysis and can be useful for finding specialized angles or coverage gaps.
