Dear Mr Steven D'ApranoThanks for your prompt response.I guess that 'b'\x00\x00 
0' is the same as b'\x00\x00\x20\x30' if we take (space) as 20 & 0 as 30 as 
with ASCII / UTF-8 representation.  But if I go by 'Python Library Reference 
-Release version 3.4.2 (Section 4.4.2) ' there is no room for ASCII / UTF-8 
representation here.  Direct byte conversion is used.Please confirm whether I 
am right.RegardsPadmanabhan

I don't know, what *is* the problem? What behaviour did you expect? The code 
sample you show seems to be working exactly as it is supposed to.

b'\x00\x00 0' is the same as b'\x00\x00\x20\x30', and that is the same as 
b'\x20\x30' with NUL padding on the left. Written as integers, that is like 
0x00002030 == 0x2030 == 8240.

I don't think this demonstrates a bug or problem. If you still believe it does, 
please re-open the issue with a detailed description of what behaviour you 
expected and why you think this is a bug.
