if x == y , y == x
Roughly speaking, you
- open the file for update
- seek to offset 0x626c5
- write a single char
Something like this (you can look up the details from here)
f.open("file");
f.seek(0x626c5);
f.putc(27);
so basicly with seek you can just find the location of the offset?
quickedit:
so i can do the same with f.seek to get what is there currently
if x == y , y == x

Yes, if you consider a file as an array of characters, then seek is the subscripting operator, and getc() and putc() are the access functions.
array[10] = 2;
file.seek(10);file.putc(2);
One trap to watch for is that with a file you should use flush() following a write operation, especially if you intend to follow on with some read operations.
