Grid

Hola, I am learning grid from mozilla docs. I am confused about this:

Now the <header> and <footer> are set to 1 / 3, which means to start at line 1 and ends at line 3.

What does it mean that we are starting at line 1 and ending at line 3, for me line == column? I defined only 2 colums 1fr 3fr, how can they use 1 / 3 which means going from 1st column to third column

.container {
  font-family: sans-serif;
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: 1fr 3fr;
  gap: 20px;
}
header,
footer {
  border-radius: 5px;
  padding: 10px;
  background-color: rebeccapurple;
  color: whitesmoke;
  text-align: center;
}
aside {
  border-right: 1px solid rebeccapurple;
}

header {
  grid-column: 1 / 3;
  grid-row: 1;
}
main {
  grid-column: 2;
  grid-row: 2;
}
aside {
  grid-column: 1;
  grid-row: 2;
}
footer {
  grid-column: 1 / 3;
  grid-row: 3;
}
