Question on stat command
hello, I wanted to know which is the output of the stat command with a file, for example if I write on the terminal:
Code:
stat ./unix.pdf

i get the output:

Code:
754974726 6915670 -rwxrwxrwx 1 mbruno106 staff 0 90501 "Aug 13 13:26:02 2013" "Aug 13 13:26:02 2013" "Aug 13 13:26:02 2013" "Aug 13 13:26:02 2013" 4096 184 0 ./unixRC.pdf

what's the first number 754974726? and the second? the third column are permits, and number 0? and 90501?
there is a command to display the headers?
