$ mysqlbinlog --start-position=${100} --stop-position=${200} ${path-to-binlog}

try on your machine

The command mysqlbinlog is used to read and display the contents of a MySQL binary log file.

In this specific command, the following parameters are being used:

--start-position=${100}: This specifies the starting position in the binary log file from where the log will be read. ${100} is a placeholder for the actual desired starting position. You would replace ${100} with the actual position you want to start reading from.
--stop-position=${200}: This specifies the stopping position in the binary log file until which the log will be read. ${200} is a placeholder for the actual desired stopping position. You would replace ${200} with the actual position you want to stop reading at.
${path-to-binlog}: This is also a placeholder for the actual path to the binary log file. You would replace ${path-to-binlog} with the actual path to the binary log file on your system.

By specifying the starting and stopping positions, the command will read and display the contents of the binary log file within that range.
