You may need to use eval, because raw_input() does not understand '\'-
prefixed characters.
>>testValue = eval('"%s"' % raw_input("Ente r Binary Code..: "))
Enter Binary Code..: \x02\x00
>>junk, = struct.unpack(' h', testValue) print junk

raw_input doesn't understand escape sequences. You have to decode them.
import struct
testValue=raw_i nput() # input '\x02\x00'
junk = struct.unpack(' h',testValue.de code('string_es cape'))

Good day everyone,
I have produced a patch against the latest CVS to add support for two
new formatting characters in the struct module. It is currently an RFE,
which I include a link to at the end of this post. Please read the
email before you respond to it.
Generally, the struct module is for packing and unpacking of binary
data. It includes support to pack and unpack the c types:
byte, char, short, long, long long, char, *, and...

I am trying to read data from a file binary file and then unpack the
data into python variables. Some of the data is store like this;
xbuffer: '\x00\x00\xb9\x02\x13EXCLUDE_CREDIT_CARD'
# the above was printed using repr(xbuffer).
# Note that int(0x13) = 19 which is exactly the length of the visible

Hi All,
I am pretty new to python and am having a problem
intepreting binary data using struct.unpack.
I am reading a file containing binary packed data
using open with "rb". All the values are coming through
fine when using (integer1,) = struct.unpack('l', line)
except when line contains "carriage-return" "linefeed"
which are valid binary packed values. Error = unpack
string size dows not match format. It seems that

Hi,
I am at the end of my tether now - after spending several days trying to
figure how to do this. I have finally written a simple "proof of
concept" program to test serializing a structure containing pointers
into a "flattened" bit stream.
Here is my code (it dosen't work - compiles fine, pack appears to work,
but unpack retrieves jibberish and causes program to crash).

Hello,
given the ongoing work on struct (which I thought was a dead module), I was
wondering if it would be possible to add an API to register custom parsing
codes for struct. Whenever I use it for non-trivial tasks, I always happen to
write small wrapper functions to adjust the values returned by struct.
An example API would be the following:

I found this simple recipe for converting a dotted quad ip address to a
string of a long int.
struct.unpack('L',socket.inet_aton(ip))
trouble is when I use this, I get
struct.error: unpack str size does not match format
I thought ip addresses were unsigned 32 bit integers.

Hi!
I have a really long binary file that I want to read.
The way I am doing it now is:
for i in xrange(N): # N is about 10,000,000
time = struct.unpack('=HHHH', infile.read(8))
# do something
tdc = struct.unpack('=LiLiLiLi',self.lmf.read(32))

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
