i already tried using split, but it says only can be used in string. so can someone help me to fix it?

here’s my code to convert bytes to binary:

def biner(password):
    print(password)
    password[0]
    for my_byte in password:
        if my_byte != None:
            return ' '.join(f'{my_byte:0>8b}' for my_byte in password)

here’s the web i tried to count

>Solution :

So quite simply you can take advantage of your script that already splits your input into your desired separation. So using string.split works just fine here.

def biner(password):
    print(password)
    password[0]
    for my_byte in password:
        if my_byte != None: #probably better to replace with is not None rather than != None
            string_output = ' '.join(f'{my_byte:0>8b}' for my_byte in password)
            return string_output, len(string_output.split(' '))#so here we get your 'count' simply the number of splits defined in string_output
