I think the question is unclear.  You say you've seen struct.unpack.
So what then?  Don't you think struct.unpack will work?  What do you
mean you are unsure how and what Python has to offer?  The documentation
which is on the web site clearly explains how and what struct.unpack
has to offer...

Please clarify.
