I use base64 module on python3.0
like:
import base64
b="hello world"
Try:
b = b"hello world"
instead.
a=base64.b64encode(b)
print(a)
but when i run it,it catch a error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/jackie-yang/yd5m19/pythonstudy/test.py", line 4, in <module>
a=base64.b64encode(b)
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.0/base64.py", line 56, in b64encode
raise TypeError("expected bytes, not %s" % s.__class__.__name__)
TypeError: expected bytes, not str
and also the document's example:
import base64
encoded = base64.b64encode('data to be encoded')
encoded
'ZGF0YSB0byBiZSBlbmNvZGVk'
data = base64.b64decode(encoded)
data
'data to be encoded'
can not run too.
what happen?
As the traceback says, it needs bytes, not string. Perhaps the example
would've been clearer as:
>>> import base64
>>> encoded = base64.b64encode(b'data to be encoded')
