For example, I want 68656c6c6f, the hex encoding of the word 'hello', to be converted into [104, 101, 108, 108, 111]. I need it as a list, not as a continuous integer.
x=int("68656c6c6f",16) is apparently not what I'm looking for because it gives me 448378203247 instead, which makes sense. But it's not my solution.
Use int(s, base=16),
s = "68656c6c6f"
x = [int(s[i:i+2], 16) for i in range(0, len(s), 2)]
print(x)
# Output
[104, 101, 108, 108, 111]
Or use ord as mentioned by @Liam
s = "68656c6c6f"
x = [ord(c) for c in s.decode('hex')]
print(x)
# Output
[104, 101, 108, 108, 111]
just do this:
hex_string = "68656c6c6f"
c_list = []
for c in hex_string.decode("hex"):
c_list.append(ord(c))
