Yes.

./ is relative to the current document's directory

../ is relative to the parent of the current document's directory (one level up).

./ Same directory. / This is no need to the current directory. just give the file name is enough /

../ Parent directory. / If you want want get data from an previous directory of current directory should mention this or write name of the previous directory /
