Convert bytes to a string

To convert a byte object into a string, you can use the decode() method. This method is available on all bytes objects, and takes an encoding as its argument. For example:

Convert a byte object into a string using the decode() method in Python

You can also use the str() function to accomplish this. For example:

Convert a byte object into a string using the str() method in Python

Both of these approaches assume that the byte string is encoded using the utf-8 encoding. If the byte string was encoded using a different encoding, you will need to specify the correct encoding when calling decode() or str().
