Question

In Java i did it like this but how do you do this in Python? Specially the bytesArray[i] = (byte) (Integer.parseInt(byteArrayStr[i],16));

  public static byte[] toBytes(String bytes) throws IOException
  {
    String byteArrayStr[] = bytes.split("\\/");
    byte bytesArray[] = new byte[byteArrayStr.length];
    for (int i = 0; i < byteArrayStr.length; ++i)
    {
        bytesArray[i] = (byte) (Integer.parseInt(byteArrayStr[i],16));
    }

    return bytesArray;
  }

To answer directly: int(x, 16). What you’re doing in Python would be a single list comprehension (I’m assuming string looks like af/ce/13/...)

l = [int(x, 16) for x in string.split('/')]
