Page redirection question

    I have a quick question. I’ve noticed that on my site with the %postname% permalink structure selected, if I type in the URL semi-incorrectly WordPress seems to know what I wanted and redirects to the correct URL.

    For example, if I have a child page of a parent, and forget to put the parent’s name:

    mysite.com/child-page/

    it redirects to

    mysite.com/parent-page/child-page/

    Does anyone know how WordPress does this? Does it do it through 301 redirects?
