The __[Raspberry Pi OS]__, previously called [Raspbian], is a [Linux]-based operating system used for the [Raspberry Pi] single board computer (SBC).

The RPi OS is available in a 32 bit version and as a 64 bit OS, the latter available in beta as both a standard and "lite" version since mid 2020:

The latest as of this writing is from 5 March of this year. It's not been officially released but it seems to work fine, though most people won't notice any performance increase it is necessary for the Pi 4 8GB to be able to access the full complement of its memory.
