       stat()  -  returns  information  pertaining to a file or a
       directory

       If str is the name of a regular file  (not  a  directory),
       then stat() will return an array of information pertaining
       to that file.  The form of the array is as follows:

                 ({ file_size, last_time_file_touched, time_object_loaded })

       If stat is called on a directory (not a regular file), or with a second
       argument of -1, then stat() behaves identically to get_dir(3).

       get_dir(3), file_size(3)
