Python - difference between '../../' and '/../../' when they are concatenated to a path

 

 

zzh1.py:

import os.path

print(os.path.dirname(__file__))
abs_file_dir = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
print(abs_file_dir)
a = abs_file_dir + '../../'
print(a)
print(os.path.abspath(a))

 

zzh2.py:

import os.path

print(os.path.dirname(__file__))
abs_file_dir = os.path.abspath(os.path.dirname(__file__))
print(abs_file_dir)
a = abs_file_dir + '/../../'
print(a)
print(os.path.abspath(a))
