From: Anthony Cole on 10 May 2010 15:55 How can I concatenate 2 hex strings (e.g. '\x16' and '\xb9') then convert the answer to an integer? When I try i always end up with the ASCII equivalent! Thanks, Anthony

You can convert a bytestring to an integer using the functions in the 'struct' module.

I think you want the `struct` module: struct â Interpret strings as packed binary data http://docs.python.org/library/struct.html Cheers, Chris -- http://blog.rebertia.com |
