"ab" is "append; open or create binary file for writing at end-of-file"How is it different from ab+ ?
and "ab+" is "append; open or create binary file for update, writing at
end-of-file".
In other words, the difference is that "ab" is write-only, while "ab+"
is read/write.

Then in that case, ab+ is better if you want to do write followed by
read in same function.
