In this article, you will learn string encoding in Python. Base64 is a group of similar binary-to-text encoding schemes that represent binary data in an ASCII string format by translating it into a radix-64 representation. In Python, you can use the base64 module to encode and decode a string.
Step 1: Import base64 library
import base64
Step 2: Create a string
str = "CodeAllow" print("str = ", str) print("str type = ", type(str))
Step 3: Base64 string encoding
str = base64.b64encode(str.encode()) print("str = ", str) print("str type = ", type(str))
Output:
str = CodeAllow
str type = <class 'str'>
str = b'Q29kZUFsbG93'
str type = <class 'bytes'>
