4 years ago As a followup to today's chat re: reading binary files in python.
In the past I have used numpy.fromfile function that seems to do the trick. Some sample code is here where I used it to read the OSU tide model files: https://github.com/mrayson/soda/blob/python3pip/soda/dataio/conversion/readotps.py#L395
I found it more intuitive than the struct package. You can jump around in the file using the seek function (like C/matlab).

Hi all, Tomorrow Nick is going to step me (and hopefully you too!) through reading corrupt binary files from a Nortek Vector and saving the output. It should be an interesting session on a real case spanning a few packages and computer wizardry.
Oceanworks at 12pm. I will bring Tim Tams.
