Python | Ways to convert list of ASCII value to string

Given a list of ASCII values, write a Python program to convert those values to their character and make a string. Given below are a few methods to solve the problem.

Method #1: Using Naive Method

# Python code to demonstrate  
# conversion of list of ascii values 
# to string 
  
# Initialising list 
ini_list = [71, 101, 101, 107, 115, 102,  
           111, 114, 71, 101, 101, 107, 115]  
  
# Printing initial list 
print ("Initial list", ini_list) 
  
# Using Naive Method 
res = "" 
for val in ini_list: 
    res = res + chr(val) 
  
# Printing resultant string 
print ("Resultant string", str(res)) 

Output:

Initial list [71, 101, 101, 107, 115, 102, 111, 114, 71, 101, 101, 107, 115]

Method #2: Using map()

# Python code to demonstrate  
# conversion of list of ascii values 
# to string 
  
# Initialising list 
ini_list = [71, 101, 101, 107, 115, 102, 
            111, 114, 71, 101, 101, 107, 115]  
  
# Printing initial list 
print ("Initial list", ini_list) 
  
# Using map and join 
res = ''.join(map(chr, ini_list)) 
  
# Print the resultant string 
print ("Resultant string", str(res)) 

Output:

Initial list [71, 101, 101, 107, 115, 102, 111, 114, 71, 101, 101, 107, 115]

Method #3: Using join and list comprehension

# Python code to demonstrate  
# conversion of a list of ascii values 
# to string 
  
# Initialising list 
ini_list = [71, 101, 101, 107, 115, 102, 
            111, 114, 71, 101, 101, 107, 115]  
  
# Printing initial list 
print ("Initial list", ini_list) 
  
# Using list comprehension and join 
res = ''.join(chr(val) for val in ini_list) 
  
# Print the resultant string 
print ("Resultant string", str(res)) 

Output:

Initial list [71, 101, 101, 107, 115, 102, 111, 114, 71, 101, 101, 107, 115]
Resultant string GeeksforGeeks
