The two types of operating system are

  1. command line and graphical user interface ✓
  2. UNIX and LINUX
  3. system software and application software
  4. translators and assemblers
Explanation

Operating systems are grouped by the way users interact with them. A command line system takes typed commands. A graphical user interface system uses windows, icons and a mouse or touch.

UNIX and Linux are examples of operating systems, not types. System software and application software are the two main kinds of software, not types of operating system.
