NAME
       groups - display current group names

SYNOPSIS
       groups [user]

DESCRIPTION

       not have a corresponding entry in /etc/group, the value will be
       displayed as the numerical group value. The optional user parameter
       will display the groups for the named user.

       information from /etc/group reported. The user must use newgrp or sg to
       change their current real and effective group ID.
