Perhaps you want something like this:

for x in 'abcde':

... print ord(x), hex(ord(x))
...
97 0x61
98 0x62
99 0x63
100 0x64
101 0x65

Look here for documentation:

The struct module is nifty, and most likely faster than ord()
#########

from struct import unpack

def toBytes(value):
"Turns a string into a list of byte values"
return unpack('%sB' % len(value), value)

print toBytes('ABCDEFG')
