## Prerequisites
- [Linux Basics](https://linkedin.github.io/school-of-sre/level101/linux_basics/intro/)
- [Python Basics](https://linkedin.github.io/school-of-sre/level101/python_web/intro/)
## What to expect from this course
The course covers a fundamental understanding of signals and system calls. It sheds light on how the knowledge of signals and system calls can be helpful for an SRE.
## What is not covered under this course
