/etc/passwd

In the /etc/passwd printout, what information does the fourth column provide?
'Well I woke up Sunday morning, with no way to hold my head, that didn't hurt. And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad, so I had one more for dessert'

Group Id. Man 4 passwd for full details.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.

I feel like an idiot. I knew that. Sorry for the dumb newbie question.
