Hello
I'm using this function to read data in byte format from file
def readBytes(file, offset, size):
file.seek(offset)
return file.read(size)
file is opened with open function:
file = open(path, "rb")
then i'm using array.array('B', bytes) to parse read-out data, for
example in this function:
def getIntValOfBytes(bytes):
value = i = 0
for byte in array.array('B', bytes):
value |= byte << (8 * i)
i += 1
return value
when i read one portion of bytes everything works ok. but now i need
read from more locations in file, then somehow merge these data together
and then pass to getIntValOfBytes function..
i tried list
list = []
for offset in offsets
list.extend(readBytes(file, offset, size))
or string
string = ""
for offset in offsets
string += readBytes(file, offset, size)
but with list i get this error
for byte in array.array('B', bytes):
TypeError: an integer is required
in getIntValOfBytes (i passed the part of the list to the method, list[x:y])
and with string it just freeze....
I will appreciate any help..
[I'm newbie so sorry if i'm missing something obvious]
