How can I concatenate 2 hex strings (e.g. '\x16' and '\xb9') then convert the answer to an integer?When I try i always end up with the ASCII equivalent!
Those are just bytestrings (assuming you're using Python 2.x), ie strings using 1 byte per character. You can convert a bytestring to an integer using the functions in the 'struct' module. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
