It may be any of the following:
‘r’ Open for reading only; place the file pointer at the beginning of the file.
‘r+’ Open for reading and writing; place the file pointer at the beginning of the file.
‘w’ Open for writing only; place the file pointer at the beginning of the file and truncate the file to zero
length. If the file does not exist, attempt to create it.
‘w+’ Open for reading and writing; place the file pointer at the beginning of the file and truncate the
file to zero length. If the file does not exist, attempt to create it.
‘a’ Open for writing only; place the file pointer at the end of the file. If the file does not exist, attempt
to create it.
‘a+’ Open for reading and writing; place the file pointer at the end of the file. If the file does not exist,
attempt to create it.

exists, the fopen() call will fail by returning FALSE and generating an error of level E_WARNING. If
the file does not exist, attempt to create it. This is equivalent to specifying O_EXCL|O_CREAT flags
for the underlying open(2) system call.
