  Description     : a powerful declarative parser for binary data

Construct is a python library for parsing and building of data structures (binary or textual). It is based on the concept of defining data structures in a declarative manner, rather than procedural code: more complex constructs are composed of a hierarchy of simpler ones. It's the first library that makes parsing fun, instead of the usual headache it is today.
