I had to work on a project where I needed to read a BMP file using python, it was quite interesting, actually the best way is to have a review on the BMP file format (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMP_file_format) then reading it as binairy file, to extract the data.

You will need to use the struct python library to perform the extraction
