Directory Permission in Linux | Bash shell scripting #linux #shellscripting

In Linux, directory permissions determine who can access and manipulate the contents of a directory. There are three types of permissions that can be set for a directory: read, write, and execute. The permissions are set for three categories of users: owner, group, and others. The permissions can be represented using a three-digit number, with each digit corresponding to the permissions for the owner, group, and others respectively. The digits can have a value from 0 to 7, where each number represents a different set of permissions. The permissions for a directory can be changed using the chmod command.
