1. To convert a string to bytes.

Here is example where its not correct. I tried to convert str to byte
>>>chr(900&ord(b’\xFF’))
\x84′
>>> chr(900&ord(b’\xFF’)).encode()
b’\xc2\x84′
python 3.7
you are actually trying to “b”” and to “.encode()” at de same line…
,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
>>> chr(900&ord(b’\xFF’)).encode()
try maby to tipe:
>>>chr(900&ord(b’\xFF’))
and then :
>>> chr(900&ord(’\xFF’)).encode()
yeah, I think b” and ”.encode() are not the same
