encode and decode string function in python?

Question

ICSM · Answer

Predefined (built-in / library) functions in Python that handle
encoding and decoding.
1. String encode() method
Converts a Python string (str) to bytes.
text = "Hello नमस्ते"
encoded = text.encode("utf-8")   # str → bytes
print(encoded)   # b'Hello \xe0\xa4...'
2. Bytes decode() method
Converts bytes back to string.
decoded = encoded.decode("utf-8")   # bytes → str
print(decoded)   # "Hello नमस्ते"
3. Base64 predefined functions (from base64 module)
import base64
text = "Python Encoding"
# Encode string to Base64
encoded = base64.b64encode(text.encode("utf-8"))
print(encoded)  # b'UHl0aG9uIEVuY29kaW5n'
# Decode Base64 back to string
decoded = base64.b64decode(encoded).decode("utf-8")
print(decoded)  # Python Encoding
So the predefined functions you’ll use most often are:
str.encode(encoding)bytes.decode(encoding)base64.b64encode()base64.b64decode()
