stat() returns a file's _status_, not its _statistics_. "Statistics" implies information interpreted from the data of several files, not concrete meaning from a single file. Both Linux and POSIX manual pages for stat() list the name as "stat - get file status," and do not mention the word "statistic" anywhere. ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 198.202.25.251 (proxied: 1.1 wet-blanket.ely.ath.cx) ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stat.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/68172 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68172/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68172/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68172/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68172/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68172/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68172/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/68172 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/68172 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
