Since 1 octal digit represents 3 binary digits, one octal digit can represent the <span style="font-family:courier;font-weight:bold;">rwx</span> permission granted or NOT granted. The permissions '''rwx''' are be in the form of 3 binary digits (1 represents the permission granted and 0 represents the permission NOT granted).
'''NOTE:''' You can use the '''-R''' option to set permissions for directory, subdirectory and directory contents '''recursively'''.
