Glob, short for "global," refers to a pattern matching technique used in programming and scripting to match file names or paths based on wildcard characters. It is commonly used in Unix-like operating systems and various programming languages for tasks such as file manipulation and retrieval. In Glob patterns, the following wildcard characters are typically utilized: - `*`: Matches zero or more characters. For example, `*.txt` matches any file with a `.txt` extension. - `?`: Matches exactly one character.
