Simplified it grants you access to the hardware. Without an operating system your computer is just a bunch of chips and cables, it's the OS that tells the processor what to do, manages the memory and lets you, and programs, interact with all the components, so it's the interface between user and hardware. If you are looking for more specific informations about OS you can find those on many (online-) computer or generic encyclopedias such as wikipedia.
