My code is:
print os.urandom(64)
which outputs:
> "D:\Python25\pythonw.exe" "D:\zjm_code\a.py"
\xd0\xc8=<\xdbD'
\xdf\xf0\xb3>\xfc\xf2\x99\x93
=S\xb2\xcd'\xdbD\x8d\xd0\\xbc{&YkD[\xdd\x8b\xbd\x82\x9e\xad\xd5\x90\x90\xdcD9\xbf9.\xeb\x9b>\xef#n\x84
which isn't readable, so I tried this:
print os.urandom(64).decode("utf-8")
but then I get:
> "D:\Python25\pythonw.exe" "D:\zjm_code\a.py"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "D:\zjm_code\a.py", line 17, in <module>
print os.urandom(64).decode("utf-8")
File "D:\Python25\lib\encodings\utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 0-3: invalid data
What should I do to get human-readable output?
