Loop through header information in a ZIP file

import struct

data = open('myfile.zip', 'rb').read()
start = 0
for i in range(3):                      # show the first 3 file headers
    start += 14
    fields = struct.unpack('LLLHH', data[start:start+16])
    crc32, comp_size, uncomp_size, filenamesize, extra_size = fields

    start += 16
    filename = data[start:start+filenamesize]
    start += filenamesize
    extra = data[start:start+extra_size]
    print filename, hex(crc32), comp_size, uncomp_size

    start += extra_size + comp_size     # skip to the next header
