Terry J. Reedy added the comment: The proposal is to add a .hex method (similar to binascii.hexlify) that is the inverse of .fromhex (similar to binascii.unhexlify), as originally specified in PEP 358. http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0358/ "The object has a .hex() method that does the reverse [of .frombytes] >> bytes([92, 83, 80, 255]).hex() '5c5350ff' " If we add .hex, I think we should stick with this: no 0x or \x prefix.
To aid debugging, I would change spaces to be None or a positive int n to insert a space every n bytes. So .hex(8) for an array of 64 bit ints. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9951> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
