<h2>[WHAT]</h2>
<ol>
<li>] true multi tasking is ability of the operating system to run multiple applications(apps) concurrently</li>
<li>] lets not confuse "true multi -tasking" with "task switching", where task swiching is the act of the user switching from one task(app) to another, ex from checking for email in the email app to checking for tweets in the twitter app</li>
<li>] most mobile operating systems(iOS, android, windows) give you the appearance of multi-tasking by "suspending" the state of one application when the user "switches tasks" to another application.</li>
