Python中读取二进制文件时pack和unpack的应用

参考资料：http://docs.python.org/library/struct.html#struct-alignment

 

sys.byteorder可以得到机器的endian信息

 

import struct

 

fp = open(fname, 'rb')

(a,b,c) = struct.unpack(">iii",fp.read(4+4+4))
print "%x %x %x" % (a,b,c)

----------------------------------------------------

fp = open("data.dat", "wb")
fp.write(struct.pack("iii",1234,5678,10))
fp.close()

 

说明：

1. >表示big endian
