# umask ``` Permission | Binary | Octal | User | Group | Other | ====================================================== r | 100 | 4 | | | | w | 010 | 2 | | | | x | 001 | 1 | | | | ======================================================= ``` for example ### - the owner of file has read, write, and execute - file group only read and execute - the other only can read the permission is like this ``` u g o rwx r-x r-- ``` aka, because rwx has total point of 4 + 2 + 1, so the permission for user is 7 because group only have 4 & 1, so the permission is 5 and last. other only read, which is 4 the equalivalent command is `chmod 754`
