linux - Understanding file permissions

What is the ending r for and the leading d for in file permissions on Linux?


Example:


drwxr-xr-x

I know about the user, group, others part, and I know w=write, r=read, x=execute.


But I don't know about the leading d and the trailing r.


Can anyone explain how this works?
