Answer / nirav
The archive bit is a binary bit. As such, it is either 1
or 0, also frequently called set (1) and clear or reset (0).
It represents whether the file has (1) or has not (0)
changed since the last backup.
Archive bits are not affected by simply reading a file.
When a file is copied, the original file's archive bit is
unaffected, however the copy's archive bit will be set at
the time the copy is made.
