Everything about Path (computing)
Text that identifies an item in a computer file system
A path is a string that uniquely identifies an item in a hierarchical file system. Generally, a path is composed of directory names, special format specifiers, and optionally a filename, all separated by delimiters. This delimiter can vary by operating system, but popular, modern systems use the slash /, backslash \, or colon :. Wikipedia →
