Write a program to read and write the binary data using python?..

Answer / chaitanya

The module that is used to write and read the binary data is known as struct. This module allows the functionality and with it many functionalities to be used that consists of the string class. This class contains the binary data that is in the form of numbers that gets converted in python objects for use and vice versa. The program can read or write the binary data is:

import struct

f = open(file-name, "rb")

# This Open() method allows the file to get opened in binary mode to make it portable for # use.

s = f.read(8)

x, y, z = struct.unpack(">hhl", s)

The ‘>” is used to show the format string that allows the string to be converted in big-endian data form. For homogenous list of data the array module can be used that will allow the data to be kept more organized fashion.
