Bug in struct module?

[Hoon Yoon]

Hi,


>>> calcsize('hd')
16
>>> calcsize('dh')
10
That seems like a bug to me. BTW: it won't convert 
>>> unpack('dh', s[-10:])
(2.47032822921e-323, 16424)
>>> unpack('hd', s[-10:])
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
struct.error: unpack str size does not match format

Does anyone know how to unpack a bin file written in VB:
Fno = FreeFile
Open CDir & Fn & "." & cdte For Binary As #Fno
Put #Fno, , xMat

where xMat is same as x created by?

Dim x(4, 3) As Double
'This code example opens the file in Binary mode for reading; other
processes can't read file.
For r = 0 To UBound(x, 1)
    For c = 0 To UBound(x, 2)
        x(r, c) = r * c
    Next c
Next r
