Gotoxy for files in python

Question

Hey there! How can i write a string in a specific position in a file? For example, how can I write "hello" in coordinate (4,5)?

Answer 1

Use seek method of the file object. <file>.seek(offset) where offset is a zero based address of the file cursor. To go to beginning of file pass zero as offset. More about the seek method can be found at the following link:
