Binary Header Format
1. File Header
There is only one file header in a binary file. The file header contains the
following information.
Cookie

considered as a separate waveform. The waveform header contains the
information about the type of waveform data that are stored following the
waveform data header.
Header Size
A 4-byte integer, indicating the number of bytes in the
header.
