Re: base64.encode and decode not correct

It seems unlikely that there is a bug in Python's base64 encode/decode functions, but it is possible. For me, a long string of the same length you mention survives an encode/decode pair (a round-trip): Python 2.3.3 (#1, May 7 2004, 10:31:40) [GCC 3.3.3 20040412 (Red Hat Linux 3.3.3-7)] o
