How do I convert a single character into it's hex ascii value in python ?

Question

Good Afternoon, I have a query,like I'm interested to taking a single character,

c = 'c' # for example

hex_val_string = char_to_hex_string(c)

print hex_val_string

Output:

63

Is there any predefined string library? I just want to know is there any simplest way of going about this ?

Answer 1

In python, to use the "hex" encoding, use

>>> import codecs

>>> codecs.encode(b"c", "hex")

b'63'

There are also several ways of doing this:

>>> hex(ord("c"))

'0x63'

>>> format(ord("c"), "x")

'63'

>>> "c".encode("hex")

'63'
