Okay, how do I do this?
Also, if you look at the code, I build a 32-bit unsigned integer from
the bytes I read. And the 32-bit pattern I am looking for can start on
_any_ byte boundary in the file. It would be nice if I could somehow
just scan for that pattern explicitly, without having to build a
I want to scan a file byte for byte for occurences of the the four byte
pattern 0x0100. I've tried with this:
# start
import sys
numChars = 0
startCode = 0
count = 0
inputFile = sys.stdin
while True:
ch = inputFile.read(1)
numChars += 1
if len(ch) < 1: break
startCode = ((
