docstring: Change the file position.
  
          The new position is specified by offset, relative to the
          position indicated by whence. Possible values for whence are:
  
              0: start of stream (default): offset must not be negative
              1: current stream position
              2: end of stream; offset must not be positive
  
          Returns the new file position.
  
          Note that seeking is emulated, so depending on the parameters,
          this operation may be extremely slow.
