问题
I have a string that looks like this.
st = '/M\xe4rzen'
I would like to covert this to unicode. How can I do this? I've tried:
st.decode('utf-8')
unicode(t, 'utf-8')
The original file is utf-8 encoded, but I can't seem to get the unicode representation of the string.
回答1:
Your data is not UTF8 encoded; more likely it is using the Latin-1 encoding:
>>> print st.decode('latin1')
/Märzen
Calling .decode() is enough, no need to also call unicode().
