Eh? What's so difficult about it?

And what is it you _want_? If the other end sent you four
ASCII "." bytes, shouldn't that be what you see?

Sorry, I've no clue what "hexa, bin" is or how to convert to
it.

I have absolutely no idea what you're trying to do, but maybe
this will help: In Python a "string" is an array of 8-bit
bytes.
If you want the integer equivalent of the 3rd byte in a string s,
do this:
b = ord(s[2])
For example:
>>> s = "ABC"
>>> ord(s[0])
65
>>> ord(s[1])
66
>>> ord(s[2])
67
If you want a list of the integer equivalents of the bytes in a
string, do this:
bl = [ord(c) for c in s]
>>> [ord(c) for c in s]
[65, 66, 67]
