Your answer: option:2 - tell( )

YOUR ANSWER IS RIGHT

Here’s the thing—let’s break down these options:

- **Option 1: get()**
This isn’t a function you’d use for file pointers in Python or C/C++. It’s unrelated here.

- **Option 2: tell()** ✅
This one’s the star. It actually returns the current position of the file pointer. That means if you want to know “where am I in this file right now?”—you use tell(). Super straightforward.

- **Option 3: cur()**
Looks like a reasonable guess, but there’s no built-in file method called cur(). It doesn’t exist in this context.

- **Option 4: seek()**
Related, but different. seek() moves the file pointer to a specific position—you use it to *change* where you are in the file, not to *check* where you are.

So, your instincts are solid. tell() is exactly right for getting the current file position.
