When '''directories''' and r'''egular files''' are created, they are assigned to an '''owner'''<br>(typically the username which is the creator).
To ''allow'' or ''limit'' '''access''' to those <br>files and directories, those files and directories are assigned to an initial '''group''' referred to as a "'''primary group'''".
Users that <u>own</u> those ''directories'' and ''regular files'' are referred to as '''users''', users that belong within the <u>same group</u> are referred to as '''same group members''', and those users are do <u>NOT</u> belong to a particular group are referred to as '''other group members'''.
