The example can be fixed by placing a "b" before the two string literals. However, pretty much the whole document refers to "strings" and should refer to "byte sequences" or the "bytes" type. I thought there were automated tests that exercised the documentation examples. Am I wrong about that? ---------- nosy: +stutzbach resolution: -> accepted stage: -> needs patch title: base64 encoding takes in bytes rather than string. -> base64 docs refers to strings instead of bytes versions: +Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9730> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
