[python3.0] s = sha1(random()).hexdigest()

from random import random

TypeError: object supporting the buffer API required,

How does sha1 work in python3.0 please ?

sha1 hashes strings, not numbers. Try using str(random()). But if
you want some random hex digits, try os.urandom(10).encode('hex')
rather than messing with sha1.

s = sha1(bytes(random(),'utf-8')).hexdigest()

i found this, looks let say strange. But it works

Oh, Python 3. It's done some different way, someone else will have to
specify. I'm still using 2.x.

Be careful, if you're relying on the uniqueness and unpredictability
of this number for program security, that random() isn't designed
for such purposes. Use os.urandom instead.

"".join([hex(c) for c in os.urandom(10)]) '0x540x6c0xdf0xd90xe10x7c0x330x370x9a0x8'

 

[Paul Rubin]

"".join([hex(c) for c in os.urandom(10)])

'0x540x6c0xdf0xd90xe10x7c0x330x370x9a0x8'

That doesn't look so good, because of all the 0x.

This works ?

Is this the new way to create a list in Python3.0 ?
s=('test',)

That is a 1-tuple in both 2.x and 3.0. For a list, you'd say

s = ['test']
