I am new in python programming and i am a bit confused. I try to get the bytes from a string to hash and encrypt but i got
b'...' b character in front of string just like the below example. Is any way avoid this?.Can anyone give a solution? Sorry for this silly question
import hashlib text = "my secret data" pw_bytes = text.encode('utf-8') print('print',pw_bytes) m = hashlib.md5() m.update(pw_bytes) OUTPUT:
print b'my secret data' 
950
Decode() function is used to remove the prefix b of a string.
A prefix of 'b' or 'B' is ignored in Python 2. In Python 3, Bytes literals are always prefixed with 'b' or 'B'; they produce an instance of the bytes type instead of the str type. They may only contain ASCII characters; bytes with a numeric value of 128 or greater must be expressed with escapes.
You can remove a character from a Python string using replace() or translate(). Both these methods replace a character or string with a given value. If an empty string is specified, the character or string you select is removed from the string without a replacement.
Using 'str. replace() , we can replace a specific character. If we want to remove that specific character, replace that character with an empty string. The str. replace() method will replace all occurrences of the specific character mentioned.
This should do the trick:
pw_bytes.decode("utf-8") If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
