File Permission Systems in Computer

Image
File permissions system : eg drwxr-xr-x this is a 9 or 10 letter string (if 10 letters then the first one will tell either it is file or directory, d means directory and dash(-) for file) rest 9 letters can be divided into 3x3, in which the first three permission are for owner(U), the mid three letters are for group(G) and the last three letters are for public/others(O). There the first letter out each three are read(r), the second write(w) and the third execute(x). If any of these permission isn't give to any user then that place is filled by dash(-) other the letter is present. # there are two kinds of representation of permission systems : numeric and symbolic . The above was explanation of symbolic. # the numeric permission representation is from 000 to 777. The first character is for owner(who created the file), the second is for group and the third for public/others. The values of different permission are as: read=4, write=2, execute=1. If some permissions aren...

Operators in python

Operator are symbols that perform some actions or operations. There are 7 types of operations in python: 1.  Arithmetic operators 2. Comparison or relational operators 3. Logical operators 4. Assignment operators 5. Membership operators 6. Identity operators 7. Bitwise operators Arithmetic operators are used to perform basic arithmetic operations. These are of 7 types in python: I. Addition (+) II. Subtraction (-) III. Multiplication (*) IV. Division (/) V. Exponentiation (**) VI. Modulus (%) VII. Floor division (//) Comparison operators are used to compare the two values on both side of the operators to produce logical/Boolean value True or False. There are 6 types of comparison operators in python: I. Less than (<) II. Greater than (>) III. Less than or equal to (<=) IV. Greater than or equal to (>=) V. Equal to (==) VI. Not equal to (!=) Logical operators are used to combine conditional statements and the combined expression is called logical expression which always ...
