How to create a file with read access rights

[Johny]

Is it possible to create a file on Linux with access rights?
For example
owner can read and write into the file
others can only read from the file
Thanks for replies

That all depends on your umask. Most commonly, the default value is
022 which translates to 755 or ower has full control, and all others
can read and execute. If you'd like to change a specific files
permissios with python, look into os.chmod()

Look at the documentation for os.open (for new files) and os.chmod
(for existing files).
