title: Linux File Permissions Read Access to Owner
body: <p>What command could I use to grant read access to the owner of the file? The current permissions are d-w-r--r--.</p>
  <p>Why is this answer correct ?</p>
  <pre><code>chmod 644 honey_bears
  </code></pre>
  <p>And why is this answer wrong?</p>
  <pre><code>chmod 400 honey_bears
  </code></pre>
  <hr />
  <p>My reasoning:</p>
  <p>This command chmod 644 honey_bears will give read and write permissions to the user, and read permission to the group and other users.</p>
  <p>However, the question asked above asks us to give read access to the owner of the group.</p>
  <p>What am I missing here?</p>
  <p>Also for chmod 400 honey_bears the 4 will give read access to the user. Should that not be correct?</p>
  <p>Thanks.</p>
