What is the role of the Permission class in the access control system?

In access control systems, the Permission class typically represents an abstraction of a right or permission that can be granted to a user or role. It defines what actions are allowed on a resource.

For example, in Python frameworks or security systems, Permission may contain information about the type of access (read, write, execute) and which resource it pertains to.

A simplified example of a Permission class:

class Permission:
    def __init__(self, resource, action):
        self.resource = resource
        self.action = action

    def __repr__(self):
        return f"Permission({self.resource}, {self.action})"

Thus, Permission helps centrally manage access and verify whether a user can perform certain operations.
