What is Bytes?

immutable sequences of bytes

b'data'

to convert between string and bytes, we must know the encoding of the byte sequence used to represent Unicode string Example:

data = "ABCD"
encodedData = data.encode('utf-8')
decodedData = encodedData.decode('utf-8')

Files, network resources, and HTTP responses are transmitted as **byte** streams
