CP/M, which stands for Control Program for Microcomputers, is an early operating system designed for microcomputers. It was developed in the mid-1970s by Gary Kildall of Digital Research, Inc. CP/M became one of the first widely used operating systems for personal computers, particularly those based on Intel 8080 and Zilog Z80 microprocessors.
