The command "tldr -p linux stat" is composed of two parts:

  1. "tldr": It refers to the "Too Long; Didn't Read" project, which provides simplified and condensed documentation for various command-line tools. The purpose of the "tldr" command is to display concise explanations and examples of how to use a specific command, making it easier and quicker to understand.

  2. "-p linux stat": This is an argument passed to the "tldr" command. The "-p" flag is used to specify the platform for which the documentation is needed, in this case "linux". It ensures that the command explanation and examples are relevant to the Linux operating system. "stat" is the specific command for which the documentation is requested.

Therefore, executing "tldr -p linux stat" will display a simplified summary of the "stat" command's purpose, usage, and examples specifically for the Linux platform.
