i have a 4 digit hex number (2 bytes) and i want to separate it into 2 digit hex (1 byte each) meaning i want to get the upper byte and the lower byte since i am going to add this two. how am i going to do this? should i treat it just like a normal string? please help, thanks.
ex. hexa = '0x87BE" # what i want to do is: a = 0x87, b = 0xBE # so that i could do this: c = a + b #which should be equal to 0x145 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
