[Tutor] How to get file permissions (Python 2.4)?

[leam hall]

I can use os.chmod('/usr/local/somefile') to change permissions but I
haven't been able to find a way to test for file modes.

>>> stat.S_IRWXU('/usr/bin/python')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
TypeError: 'int' object is not callable

What should I be looking for? Python 2.4.3 (RHEL 5)

Thanks!

Leam
