Python字符串的编码和解码

 先举个例子：

# coding: gbk

unicodestring  =  u " Hello, 中国 "

# Convent Unicode to plain Python string: "encode"
utf8string  =  unicodestring.encode( " utf-8 " )
utf16string  =  unicodestring.encode( " utf-16 " )
gbkstring  =  unicodestring.encode( " gbk " )
cp932string  =  unicodestring.encode( " cp932 " )

# Convent plain Python string to Unicode: "decode"
unicodestring1  =  unicode(utf8string,  " utf-8 " )
unicodestring2  =  unicode(utf16string,  " utf-16 " )
unicodestring3  =  unicode(gbkstring,  " gbk " )
unicodestring4  =  unicode(cp932string,  " cp932 " )

  概括的说，调用一个unicode对象的encode方法，返回相应编码的string对象；调用某种编码的string对象的decode或调用unicode方法，返回一个unicode对象
