Sometimes, not everyone can play with the same toys. We have different groups - like astronauts, pirates, and robots! Each group has its own set of rules for playing with toys! ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿš€๐Ÿค–

๐Ÿง Numeric Codes:

Imagine we use secret codes for permissions. 4 for "read," 2 for "write," and 1 for "execute." Add them up like puzzle pieces to make your special code and decide who can play with the toys! ๐Ÿ”ข๐Ÿ”
