Hello,

I have an encoded string in the form "004e006100700061006c006d", if you 
split on every 4 characters it decodes to a single character.
I have come up with this:

name = '004e006100700061006c006d'
name2 = ""
for x in range(0, len(name), 4):
    name2 = name2 + chr(int(name[x:x+4], 16))

Is there a better way to do this using name.decode() that would then 
also work with .encode()?

I have tried .decode("utf-16-be"), which I beleive is the format here, 
but I am getting the error:
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 0-
11: ordinal not in range(128)

And my debugger seems to show a load of unicode when it breaks.

Thank you!
