chmod 666 tasks will give all users (owner, group and
others) the read-write permission.
r = 4
w = 2
x = 1
therefore rw = 4+2 =6
ls -l : lists a large amount of information of all non-
hidden files and directories in the current working
directory. eg (permissions, owners, size, and when last
modified.)
