This looks like it's because python's strings have change in python 3.<br>
The characters used to be 8bit bytes but now they are 16 bits wide.<br>
<br>
A quick google tells me that str now has a method called maketrans so<br>
s1.maketrans(s2) should work.<br>
<br>
I'm guessing you are using a tutorial written for one of the older<br>
versions of python. I'd suggest you either find a python 3 based<br>
tutorial or use an older version of python, maybe python 2.6.<br>
<br>
ps Can you cut and paste the code into the mail next time, images are<br>
a pain to work with.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Sidharth<br>
