从int转换为string时，我的十六进制数据被更改

Question

I'm converting a large program from python 2 to python 3. My issue is with converting an int to a string and keeping the same hex data. The original python 2 code seemed to just use str(), which doesn't give me the right data in 3. For reference this hexdump() function i'm using is from scapy and I've it used on strings and it has always worked in python3.

int_val = 0x1122 #4386
print(hex(int_val))
string = chr(int_val)
hexdump(string)

#output
#0x1122
#31 37 32 38 36

I used chr on a one byte int (17) earlier on my code and it worked this way.

#output 
#0x11
#11

I'm not sure how to convert to an int to a string while keeping the same hex data. I've tried using str(), hex(), and chr().

Answer 1

An example based on the patient discussion in the questions comments.

• Using hex()[2:] for the the conversion from 'int to string' (incl. removing the '0x').
• And codecs to cross check the string with probably something comparable to hexdump (as I don't have that installed).

I tried to include the wording from the discussion in the hope that it'll help to align with the question.

(any) online hex converter as reference:

• string-functions.com/string-hex
  • Text to encode to hex: 31 37 32 38 36 a cd67 - just a made up example text string
    • result from 'something like hexdump'
• string-functions.com/hex-string
  • Hexadecimal text to decode: 333120333720333220333820333620612063643637
    • 'string with hex data'

Code:

import codecs

# pre-check: prepare example int from stringWithHexData
print('### pre-check: prepare example int from stringWithHexData ###')
stringWithHexData = '333120333720333220333820333620612063643637'
print('pre-check stringWithHexData:\n' + stringWithHexData)

str2int = int(stringWithHexData, 16)
print('pre-check int_val:\n' + str(str2int) + '\n')


# convert int 2 string
print('### convert int 2 string ###')
int_val = int(74817042136977683765116609684420893357658140325431)
print('int_val:\n' + str(int_val))
print('int_val type: ' + str(type(int_val)) + '\n')

stringWithHexData = hex(int_val)[2:]
print('stringWithHexData:\n' + stringWithHexData)
print('stringWithHexData type: ' + str(type(stringWithHexData)) + '\n')

do_something_like_hexdump = codecs.decode(stringWithHexData, "hex").decode('utf-8')
print('do_something_like_hexdump:\n' + do_something_like_hexdump)
print('do_something_like_hexdump type: ' + str(type(do_something_like_hexdump)))

Result:

### pre-check: prepare example int from stringWithHexData ###
pre-check stringWithHexData:
333120333720333220333820333620612063643637
pre-check int_val:
74817042136977683765116609684420893357658140325431

### convert int 2 string ###
int_val:
74817042136977683765116609684420893357658140325431
int_val type: <class 'int'>

stringWithHexData:
333120333720333220333820333620612063643637

Post check code:

# post check: and back to stringWithHexData to int
print("\n" + '### post-check: and back to stringWithHexData to int ###')
b_stringWithHexData_pos = codecs.encode(str.encode(do_something_like_hexdump), "hex_codec")
stringWithHexData_post = b_stringWithHexData_pos.decode('utf-8')
print("post check stringWithHexData2: \n" + stringWithHexData_post)
str2int_post = int(stringWithHexData_post, 16)
print('post-check int_val:\n' + str(str2int_post) + '\n')

Post check result:

### post-check: and back to stringWithHexData to int ###
post check stringWithHexData2:
333120333720333220333820333620612063643637
post-check int_val:
