"convert string to hex in python" Code Answer

1

your class.function expects an integer which can be represented either by a decimal or a hexadecimal literal, so that these two calls are completely equivalent:

class.function(0x77)
class.function(119)  # 0x77 == 119

even print(0x77) will show 119 (because decimal is the default representation).

so, we should rather be talking about converting a string representation to integer. the string can be a hexadecimal representation, like '0x77', then parse it with the base parameter:

 >>> int('0x77', 16)
 119

or a decimal one, then parse it as int('119').

still, storing integer whenever you deal with integers is better.

edit: as @gnibbler suggested, you can parse as int(x, 0), which handles both formats.
