Differentiate relative path from an absolute path?



Differentiate relative path from an absolute path?..

Answer / Radhe Shyam Rai

An absolute path is a complete path that starts from the root directory (/), while a relative path is a path relative to the current working directory. For example, '/home/user/documents' is an absolute path, and 'documents' is a relative path if the current working directory is '/home/user'.
