socked and bytes operation

[luca72]

Hello i have this question :
i connect to the server in this way:
sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET,socket.SOCK_STREAM)
sock.connect(('192.168.1.11',11502))
rcv = sock.recv(8124)
here i get 14 random bytes , in a string with strange chars like :
¬¨^.á‹•Ò
a„ãj
I think because sock.recv return a string.
Now i have to xor this 14 bytes with a key stored in file as a sting.
Can you help me to understand how to do it.

Thanks

Luca
