The 'fork()' system call in Linux programming is used to create a new process by duplicating the calling process. It's significant because it allows for process creation, enabling parallel execution and is fundamental to many Linux system operations.

As far as I know fork() is used to create new process for multitasking and newly created process has its own address and memory
