File-specification parts

A full file specification gives the base name of the file, the file-name extension, and the path. The path provides the disk-drive identifier and the sequence of directories needed to locate the file on the disk.

For example, the file specification

c:\source\prog\sort.obj

has the following parts:

Path Name            c:\source\prog
Base File Name       sort
File-Name Extension  .obj
