I use base64 module on python3.0
like:

import base64
b="hello world"
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?

The example has not yet been updated for Py3.  I reported this at
http://bugs.python.org/issue4975

Thank you for testing and reporting the failure.
