Hello there. Since this is one of those problems that may have some painfully simple solution that will make me feel like a fool, I'll start of with this: it's _very_ late (.. yeah, it's not).
To the point. Data returned by socket.recvfrom is a string. Obviously one that most of the time will contain non-printable characters. Let's say data[10:14] is a four byte integer. How can I convert the string data[10:14] to a python integer object? Or perhaps there's a totally different, *Pythonic*, approach to this (extracting data from these packet-representing strings). C may have poisoned my mind. Thanks for reading, hoping for some ideas. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
