• The general form of the name of a file or directory, specifying a unique location in a file system. A path points to a file system location by following the directory tree hierarchy expressed in a string of characters in which path components, separated by a delimiting character, represent each directory. The delimiting character is most commonly a slash (“/”), backslash character (“\”), or colon (“:”), though some operating systems may use a different delimiter. ← Wikipedia
