需要类似 object 的字节，而不是 python 中的“str”错误

Question

I am writing a code

image = Image.open(filename)    #opening the image
binary = bin(int(binascii.hexlify(message), 16))    #converting string into binary
binary = binary.append('1111111111111110')   #adding delimeter at the end 
binary = binary**.lstrip('0b')   #removing the starting ob of binary

............continue

and because of line 2 i am getting this error

**binary = bin(int(binascii.hexlify(message), 16))

TypeError: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'

i dont understand this error and nothing seems to work

Answer 1

The variable message contains a string, but it needs to be a sequence of bytes. To encode a string into bytes, you can do something like this:

message.encode('utf-8')
