Convert String to Binary in Python

Conversion

For converting strings to binary, we need to convert each character to binary by first converting the character to Unicode.
Then concatenate these binaries.

text = "Hello"

bin_str = ""
for c in text:
    c_bin = bin(ord(c))[2:] # remove "0b" prefix
    bin_str += c_bin.zfill(8) # padding to 8-bit for adjustment

print(bin_str)
# 0100100001100101011011000110110001101111
