interpreting a cron

Hello,
I have a cron running in one of my servers. It goes something like this

02 4 * * * /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/statistics

I would like to understand this. Can you tell me how to interpret it ?

Thanks
Regards

Before I answer this question: You could have found the answer using your favorite searchengine and/or the manpages.

Ok, as explained in man 5 crontab:

02 4 * * * /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/statistics

Run /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/statistics at 04:02 hours.

Hope this helps.
