How to validate .sd7 files in Python

Python 
def is_sd7(file_path: str) -> bool:
    """Check if file is a valid SD7 by magic bytes."""
    signature = bytes([0x53, 0x41, 0x53, 0x20, 0x46, 0x49, 0x4C, 0x45])
    with open(file_path, "rb") as f:
        return f.read(8) == signature

How to validate .sd7 files in Node.js

Node.js 
function isSD7(buffer: Buffer): boolean {
  const signature = Buffer.from([0x53, 0x41, 0x53, 0x20, 0x46, 0x49, 0x4C, 0x45]);
  return buffer.subarray(0, 8).equals(signature);
}

How to validate .sd7 files in Go

Go 
func IsSD7(data []byte) bool {
    signature := []byte{0x53, 0x41, 0x53, 0x20, 0x46, 0x49, 0x4C, 0x45}
    if len(data) < 8 {
        return false
    }
    return bytes.Equal(data[:8], signature)
}
