Converting str to binary - ebolisa - Jun-17-2019
Hi,
How can I iterate trough a phrase and convert each word to binary and then sum them? Is there a library/module for the alphabet/characteres?
For instance: mystring = 'My beautiful house'
binout = ' '.join('{0:08b}'.format(ord(x), 'b') for x in mystring)
1st_word = 01001101
...
last_word = 01100101
total_phrase = 1st_word + ... + last_wordTIA

I am not sure what means summation, may be string concatenation in this case.
Hope the following code helps you:
mystring = 'My beautiful house'
def word2bin(w):
return '0b' + ''.join('{0:08b}'.format(ord(x), 'b') for x in w)
bin(sum(map(lambda x: int(x, 2), (word2bin(x) for x in mystring.split()))))
