Summary:
A powerful declarative parser/builder for binary data
Description:
Construct is a powerful declarative parser (and builder) for binary data.

As this data structure is not code, you can use it in one direction to parse data into Pythonic objects, and in the other direction, convert (build) objects into binary data.
