[Tutor] file io: reading an int32 at the end of a file?

------------------------------------------
... but this doesn't seem to work.  The value that Python returns is:

   '@\x19\x01\x00'

but I know from similar code in Matlab that the correct sequence is:

   64 25 1 0

Can someone point out my error?
------------------------------------------

That looks like the same thing to me. 
The ascii code for '@' is 64...
hex 19 = decimal 25

Why do you think there is a problem?
