Hi!
Is there any way to read/write file with binary coded numbers in it?
I'm just tring to port this perl functions:
sub getlong {
my($t);
sysread FIL, $t, 4;
return unpack('l',$t);
}
sub getfloat {
my($t);
sysread FIL, $t, 8;
return unpack('d',$t)
}
etc...
I know, it's platform-dependent, but python has platform-dependent
modules and IEEE format is rather common.
Any suggestions?
Excuse me for my English, my native is Russian.
Thanks, Best Regards,
Alexander Semenov <sav at hey.to>
