NAME
stat() - returns information pertaining to a file or a directory
SYNOPSIS
mixed *stat(string str, int default: F_CONST0);
DESCRIPTION
If str is the name of a regular file (not a directory), then stat()
will return an array of information pertaining to that file. The
form of the array is as follows:
({ file_size, last_time_file_touched, time_object_loaded })
If stat is called on a directory (not a regular file), then stat
behaves identically to get_dir().
