Array

[Aussie]

Hi, sorry about the long length of code.
However, I feel I need to show in full to describe what I am about.
The code below works. However, surely there is a more elegant way.
I tried to use a for loop. But had no success.
I don't really want to type out line by line.
I may need to break the one function in to two functions, but for now.
Thanks,

import struct
import time
import csv
    
# Get Data out of Binary File
def readdata(filename,i):
    '''Read data from a file.  Data count is in the header'''
    with open(filename, "rb") as file:
        buffer = file.read(20)
        size, variation, objectType, pointIndex, startTime, sampleRate, count = struct.unpack('>IBBHiII', buffer)
        print(size, variation, objectType, startTime, sampleRate, count)
         
        count = count + 20 
        buffer = file.read(4 * (count))
        values = struct.unpack(f'={count}f', buffer)
        return values[i]

print(readdata('XXXXXXX',6))

#numbers = [6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11]
#for val in numbers:
# Create and Write to CSV File
with open('XXXXXXX.csv', 'w', newline='') as file:
    
    
    
    
    writer = csv.writer(file)
    writer.writerow(["Blank1", "DateTime", "Blank2", readdata('XXXXXXX',6)])
    writer.writerow(["Blank1", "DateTime", "Blank2", readdata('XXXXXXX',7)])
    writer.writerow(["Blank1", "DateTime", "Blank2", readdata('XXXXXXX',8)])
    writer.writerow(["Blank1", "DateTime", "Blank2", readdata('XXXXXXX',9)])
    writer.writerow(["Blank1", "DateTime", "Blank2", readdata('XXXXXXX',10)])
    writer.writerow(["Blank1", "DateTime", "Blank2", readdata('XXXXXXX',11)])
    writer.writerow(["Blank1", "DateTime", "Blank2", readdata('XXXXXXX',12)])
