I know I can use the function 'os.open' to deal with '.txt' files. But nevertheless I tried to open a '.jpg' file using this function as shown in the code below:
import os
f1 = os.open('imagem.jpg', os.O_RDONLY)
When I call f1 object to see what is inside it, python returns to me a integer that changes according to the number of times I have run the 'f1 = os.open('imagem.jpg', os.O_RDONLY)' code.
For example, the first time I run 'f1 = os.open('imagem.jpg', os.O_RDONLY)', f1 will assume 1, second time, 2, so on...
When I run the code below to see the methods and atributes of f1:
dir(f1)
python returns it to me:

Some one can explain to me what is happening?
