ITPEC IP October 2021 Question 18
ITPEC IP October 2021 — Question 18 of 100
From D3, the relative reference is ..\D2\D4\a. One pair of periods moves up from D3 to its parent D1. From D1, the path then descends through D2 and D4 to file a.
Answer (b)
Why not others:
- moving up twice goes above D1 and is unnecessary
- D1\D2\D4\a without a leading root marker would be interpreted below the current D3 directory
- D2\D4\a also starts below D3, but D2 is D3's sibling rather than its child
Key rule: In a relative path, two periods move to the parent directory; after that, list each child directory on the route to the file.
