→Pathname Types
It is important to understand file pathnames since you need to '''save or access a file without ambiguity''' because there may be several files by that name in various directories. For example: Accessing the '''cars.txt''' file - which file to access? It depends on the location of the file
:'''/home/userid/uli101/cars.txt''':'''/public/uli101/samples/cars.txt''':'''/etc/data/cars.txt'''
