在Python中，我如何在二进制文件中读取并循环该文件的每个字节?
当前回答
如果你正在寻找一些快速的方法，这里有一个我一直在使用的方法，它已经工作了很多年:
from array import array
with open( path, 'rb' ) as file:
data = array( 'B', file.read() ) # buffer the file
# evaluate it's data
for byte in data:
v = byte # int value
c = chr(byte)
如果你想迭代字符而不是整数，你可以简单地使用data = file.read()，它应该是py3中的bytes()对象。

对于大尺寸，我认为使用生成器不会不好，这个答案是为了读取像文件这样的东西，虽然@codeapp有一个类似的答案，我认为删除内部循环会更有意义。
def read_chunk(file_object, chunk_size=125):
while True:
file = file_object.read(chunk_size)
if not file:
break
yield file
#sample use
buffer = io.BytesIO()
file = open('myfile', 'r')
for chunk in read_chunk(file):
buffer.write(chunk)
buffer.seek(0)
// save the file or do whatever you want here
你仍然可以使用它作为一个正常的列表，我不认为这是任何用途，但是
file_list = list(read_chunk(file, chunk_size=10000))
for i in file_list:
# do something
然后得到每个数据块的索引
for index, chunk in enumurate(read_chunk(file, chunk_size=10000)):
#use the index as a number index
# you can try and get the size of each chunk with this
length = len(chunk)
注意，要注意文件的大小，chunk_size总是以字节为单位。
这篇文章本身并不是对这个问题的直接回答。相反，它是一个数据驱动的可扩展基准测试，可以用来比较这个问题的许多答案(以及利用后来更现代的Python版本中添加的新特性的变体)，因此应该有助于确定哪个具有最佳性能。
在一些情况下，我修改了参考答案中的代码，使其与基准测试框架兼容。

Python >= 3.8
多亏了walrus操作符(:=)，解决方案非常短。我们从文件中读取bytes对象，并将它们赋值给变量byte
with open("myfile", "rb") as f:
while (byte := f.read(1)):
# Do stuff with byte.
Python >= 3
在较旧的Python 3版本中，我们必须使用更详细的方式:
with open("myfile", "rb") as f:
byte = f.read(1)
while byte != b"":
# Do stuff with byte.
byte = f.read(1)
或者像benhoyt说的，跳过不相等，利用b""的值为假的事实。这使得代码在2.6和3之间兼容。X没有任何变化。如果从字节模式转换为文本模式或相反模式，也可以避免更改条件。
with open("myfile", "rb") as f:
byte = f.read(1)
while byte:
# Do stuff with byte.
byte = f.read(1)
Python >= 2.5
在Python 2中，这有点不同。这里我们得到的不是bytes对象，而是原始字符:
with open("myfile", "rb") as f:
byte = f.read(1)
while byte != "":
# Do stuff with byte.
byte = f.read(1)
注意，with语句在Python 2.5以下版本中不可用。要在v 2.5中使用它，你需要导入它:
from __future__ import with_statement
在2.6中不需要这样做。
Python 2.4及更早版本
f = open("myfile", "rb")
try:
byte = f.read(1)
while byte != "":
# Do stuff with byte.
byte = f.read(1)
finally:
f.close()
Python 3，一次读取所有文件:
with open("filename", "rb") as binary_file:
# Read the whole file at once
data = binary_file.read()
print(data)
你可以使用data变量迭代任何你想要的东西。
