How to do Base32 encoding in python3?

Base32 encoding in python 2.7 works like this:
$ python
Python 2.7.10 (default, Oct 6 2017, 22:29:07)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 9.0.0 (clang-900.0.31)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import base64
>>> print(base64.b32encode("abc"))
MFRGG===
But when I try to do the same thing in python3 it fails. Why?
$ python
Python 3.7.2 (default, Jan 13 2019, 12:50:15)
[Clang 10.0.0 (clang-1000.11.45.5)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import base64
>>> print(base64.b32encode("abc"))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "my-virtual-env/lib/python3.7/base64.py", line 154, in b32encode
s = memoryview(s).tobytes()
TypeError: memoryview: a bytes-like object is required, not 'str'
python python-3.x base32

A string in Python 3.x is a Unicode-string but a byte sequence is required. In this simple case here tryprint(base64.b32encode(b"abc")).

Answer:
print(base64.b32encode(bytearray("abc", 'ascii')).decode('utf-8'))

I'd consider"abc".encode('ascii')to be the more canonical solution (no need for the mutability ofbytearrayhere, and the method self-documents better to my mind). Not a real critique, but it's weird to seebytearrayin non-mutable contexts outside of the rare case of code that needs abytes-like type that works on Py2 (wherebytesaliasesstrand doesn't iterate byint).
