  • write(obj): writes the string representation of obj to the file.
  • read(bytes): returns a string with up to bytes from the file.
  • readline: returns a string containing an entire line from the file.
  • seek(position): sets file position to byte indicated by position.
  • tell: gets current file position
  • filesize: gets size of file
  • close: closes the file.
