Use a while loop to read the file. You now have all the values in 6 named variables that you can use to perform the math mentioned in your problem statement.
I hope this helps.

Description
All routines that swap headers take a pointer to a header structure to change the byte's sex. The destsex argument lets the swapsex rou-
tines decide whether to swap bitfields before or after swapping the words in which they occur. If destsex equals the hostsex of the machine
you are running on, the flip happens before the swap; otherwise, the flip happens after the swap. Although not all routines swap struc-
tures containing bitfields, the destsex is required.
The routine takes a pointer to an aux entry and a type, which is a ST_AUX_* constant in cmplrs/stsupport.h. The constant specifies the
type of the aux entry to change the sex of. All other routines are passed a pointer to an array of structures and a count of structures to
have the byte sex changed. The routines and are macros declared in sex.h. Only the include files that describe the structures being
swapped have to be included.
