+Let's look at a file with all rights:
+\\
+        chmod 777 examply.py
+        ls -l
+        -rwxrwxrwx 1 pi pi 4452 Jul 25 18:01 example.py
+\\
+\\
+We just did a CHMOD 777 on a file, so:
+\\
+        File has FULL permissions
+        -rwxrwxrwx is -111111111 or in octal 777
+\\
+\\
+Now we will revert the permissions:
+\\
+        chmod 644 example.py
+\\
+\\
+Now we have used CHMOD 644, so:
+\\
+        ls -l
+        -rw-r--r-- 1 pi pi 4452 Jul 25 18:01 example.py
+        Now our file is back to its original permissions.
