What is the method to get a code or list of codes inside a string:

c = s.code(2)
assert(c == 0x63)
If I understand what you want then I think its the ord() function
you are looking for
c = ord(s[2])
=== sub compare ===
Is there a method to compare a substring, without building a substring
from the big one? Like startswith or endswith, but anywhere inside the
string?
test = s[1, -1] == "bcd" # no!, builds a substring
I assume you mean test = s[1:-1] == "bcd"
test = s.sub_is(1, -1, "bcd") # yes! what I'm searching
You can use startswith() (or endswith) by providing the optional
start and end arguments:
test = s.startswith("bcd", 1, -1)
The help() command at the >>> prompt is your friend.
Try
>>> help(str)
