Is there a better way to convert int to bytes then going through strings:
x=5
str(x).encode()
(This being Py3)
If 0 <= x <= 9, bytes((ord('0')+n,)) will work. Otherwise, no. You would
have to do the same thing str(int) does, which is to reverse the
sequence of remainders from dividing by 10 and then add ord('0') to get
the char code.
Note: an as yet undocumented feature of bytes (at least in Py3) is that
bytes(count) == bytes()*count == b'\x00'*count.
