What do the numbers in a version typically represent (i.e. v1.9.0.1)?

Question

Maybe this is a silly question, but I\'ve always assumed each number delineated by a period represented a single component of the software. If that\'s true, do they ever rep

Answer 1

Generally then number are in the format of version.major.minor.hotfix, not individual internal components. So v1.9.0.1 would be version 1, major release 9 (of v1), minor release (of v1.9) 0, hot fix 1 of (v1.9.0).
