Python Programmers What Is This Permission os.chmod(sys.argv[0], 3) ?

I was boring so I tried this on PyDroid 3 : os.chmod(sys.argv[0], 3) in PyDroid 3 the system.argv[0] is running as the script file and the hackrun file so after I used that code it just outputs : Traceback most recent calls/last File:arm-linux-adnroid/accomps_files/iiec_hackrun/hackrun.py exec(open(fakepyfile).read(), __main__.__dict__) PermissionError[errno13]: Permission Denied I reinstalled PyDroid 3 and it's libraries so what is the permission ? os.chmod(sys.argv[0], 3) ?

As I get it, you changed your own permissions to the file under execution to write and run. And the parser wanted to *read* thus failed.
