Python program to convert list of integers to bytearray

Python Bytes and Byte Arrays Data Type: Exercise-3 with Solution

Write a Python program to create a bytearray from a given list of integers.

Sample Solution:

Code:

def  bytearray_from_list(int_list):
    byte_array = bytearray(int_list)
    return byte_array

def main():
    try:
        nums = [72, 123, 21, 108, 222, 67, 44, 38, 10]
        
        byte_array_result = bytearray_from_list(nums)
        
        print("Integer List:", nums)
        print("Bytearray:", byte_array_result)
        print("Decoded String:", byte_array_result.decode("utf-8"))
    except Exception as e:
        print("An error occurred:", e)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Output:

Integer List: [72, 123, 21, 108, 222, 67, 44, 38, 10]
Bytearray: bytearray(b'H{\x15l\xdeC,&\n')
An error occurred: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xde in position 4: invalid continuation byte
