How to read a binary file and write it in a txt or csv file using python?

Question

I have a binary file (.man), containing data that I want to read, using python 3.7. The idea is to convert this binary file into a txt or a csv file.

I know the total number of values in the binary file but not the number of bytes per value.

I have red many post talking about binary file but none was helpful...

Thank you in advance,

Answer 1

The solution I found is that:

    import struct
    import numpy as np

    data =[]

    with open('binary_file', "rb") as f:
        while len(data)<length(binary_file):
            data.extend([struct.unpack('f',f.read(4))])

Of course, this works because I know that the encoding is simple precision.
