Hmm,
Never thought of doing it that way.
try -
import struct
a = theByte
value = ord(a)
theByteReloaded = struct.pack("i",value)
You nmay want to check the docs for the struct module at python.org on that
pattern.

Subject: [Tutor] question about ord
Hey there,
i am using a script to change a byte into an integer
like this:
a = the byte
value = ord(a)
but i cant find the operation that can change it back to a byte. i am sure
its easy, but i am missing how to do it.
thanks for any tips
