Base64 - python vs. java values greater than 63

I am trying to convert some code of python to java. And now stuck with the python base64 encoder with values greater than 63.

python:

s = chr(59) + chr(234)
print(base64.b64encode(s))
 >> O+o=

java

char[] chars = {59, 234};
String data = new String(chars);
byte[] encoded = Base64.encodeBase64(data.getBytes());
System.out.println(new String(encoded));
 >> O8Oq

Anyone any idea?

Here is the final java code:

char[] chars = {59, 234};
String data = new String(chars);
byte[] encoded = Base64.encodeBase64(data.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"));
System.out.println(new String(encoded));
 >> O+o=

Thank you all for help. :)

Note that your snippet in Python already deals with bytes whereas the Java version starts with Unicode characters and then transforms them to bytes by calling data.getBytes().

You can achieve the same result in Python by encoding to UTF-8 first:

>>> (unichr(59) + unichr(234)).encode('utf-8').encode('base64')
'O8Oq\n'
