python struct模块

最近看一点python的代码，发现struct这个包在处理网络编程上非常强大，pack和unpack函数能很轻松地将数据组包拆包，如下所示：

#! /usr/bin/env python

import socket, struct, time, re

if __name__ == '__main__':
    num1 = 5
    num2 = 10
    str1 = 0x00001000
    str2 = 0x00002000
    cha1 = 3
    cha2 = 65
    pack_res = struct.pack('!HHIIBB', num1, num2, str1, str2, cha1, cha2)
    print "after pack "
    print "pack_res", pack_res

    n1,n2,s1,s2,c1,c2 = struct.unpack("!HHIIBB", pack_res)
    print "after unpack"
    print "n1 = ", n1
    print "n2 = ", n2
    print "s1 = ", s1
    print "s2 = ", s2
    print "c1 = ", c1
    print "c2 = ", c2

    '''''
    after pack
    pack_res
    ??????????...
    after unpack
    n1 =  5
    n2 =  10
    s1 =  4096
    s2 =  8192
    c1 =  3
    c2 =  65
    '''

官方手册有格式参数的说明，摘录如下，其中感叹号表示网络序字节流，H代表无符号短整型，B代表无符号字符，I代表无符号整形。
