Thank you all.
Dennis I really liked you solution for the issue but I have two question
about it:
1) My origin file is Text file and not binary
That's a statement, not a question.
2) I need to read each time 1 byte.
f = open(filename, 'r') # open in text mode
f.read(1) # read one byte
The OP hasn't told us what version of Python he's using on what OS. On
Windows, text mode will compress the end-of-line sequence into a single
"\n". In Python 3.x, f.read(1) will read one character, which may be more
than one byte depending on the encoding.
If you really want bytes, opening the file in text mode will come back and
by^Hite you eventually.
