Hi, it's my first time in here. I hope you don't mind if I straight to the question. I do some work in python 2 and my job is to collect some query and then send it to java program via json. We're doing batch update in Apache Phoenix, that's why I collect those query beforehand.
My question is: *Can we retain utf-8 character in list without changing its form into \xXX or \u00XX?* The reason is because that java program insert it directly "as is" without iterating the list. So, my query will be the same as we print the list directly. Example: c = 'sffs © fafd' l = list() l.append(c) print l ['sffs \xc2\xa9 fafd'] # this will be inserted, not ['sffs © fafd'] --- Best regards, Boy Sandy Gladies Arriezona _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
