Look in almost _ANY_ book on system administration or system programming.

In effect, the permission data constitutes four octal digits:

                     bits
       B A 9 - 8 7 6 - 5 4 3 - 2 1 0
       S G T   R W X   R W X   R W X
               user    group   other

S = suid bit
G = sgid bit
T = sticky bit
