Raj Maddheshiya , to find the desired information, just use a browser and go to the original python docs. You can find there all about file handling, including using seek() and the arguments that can be used.

seek() is all about the placement of the cursor in a file.

from https://www.tutorialspoint.com/JUMP_LINK__&&__python__&&__JUMP_LINK/file_seek.htm "This is optional and defaults to 0 which means absolute file positioning, other values are 1 which means seek relative to the current position and 2 means seek relative to the file's end."
