Linux Permission for files and directories Assignment
Linux Permissions Using chmod and Octal Numbers
In Linux, file permissions are a way to control who can read, 
write, or execute a file or directory.
The chmod command is used to change the permissions of a 
file or directory, often represented in an octal (numeric) format.
 
Your task is to take notes on the use of the permission 
command chmod based on Mr. Cusack's instructions.
You will write the notes displayed on the board onto paper, 
ensuring that you include a standard heading.
Name your file as follows: PX_LinuxPermissions_lastname.png.
Once completed, submit a photo of your notes to Google Classroom.

Read my notes below:

File Permissions Overview

Each file or directory has three sets of permissions, corresponding to three groups:

1. Owner (User): The person who owns the file.
2. Group: Other users who belong to the file's group.
3. Others (World): All other users on the system.

Each set has three types of permissions:

- Read (r): Ability to view the file's content.
- Write (w): Ability to modify the file's content.
- Execute (x): Ability to run the file (if it's a script or program) or access a directory.

Octal Numbers in chmod

Each of the three permissions (read, write, execute) is represented by a number:

- Read (r) = 4
- Write (w) = 2
- Execute (x) = 1
- No permission (-) = 0

To represent permissions in octal form, you sum the values for each group of permissions (owner, group, others).

Examples of Octal Permissions

Examples:
- rwx = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7 (read, write, execute)
- rw- = 4 + 2 + 0 = 6 (read, write, no execute)
- r-- = 4 + 0 + 0 = 4 (read-only)

So, a three-digit octal number defines the permissions for owner, group, and others. For example:

- 755:
  - Owner: rwx (4 + 2 + 1 = 7)
  - Group: r-x (4 + 0 + 1 = 5)
  - Others: r-x (4 + 0 + 1 = 5)

This means the owner can read, write, and execute the file, while the group and others can only read and execute it.

Using chmod with Octal Numbers

The chmod command is used to set these permissions. For example:

chmod 755 filename

This sets the permissions so that:
- The owner can read, write, and execute.
- The group can read and execute.
- Others can read and execute.

Common Permission Codes:

- 777: Everyone can read, write, and execute.
- 755: Owner has full permissions, others can read and execute.
- 644: Owner can read and write, others can only read.
- 600: Only the owner can read and write.

Changing Permissions with Symbolic Mode

You can also use symbolic notation:
- chmod u+rwx adds read, write, and execute permissions for the owner (user).
- chmod g-w removes write permission from the group.
- chmod o+x adds execute permission for others.

This approach allows more granular control without using octal numbers.
