How can I print 4 bytes as an integer

Question

I have an array of 4 bytes that I need to print it's value as an Integer. This is very easy in C, as I can cast and print with something like this:

 printf("Integer Value = %i", (int) pointer_to_4_bytes_array);

Thanks.

In Python2 (works on 3 too), you can use the struct module.

>>> import struct
>>> struct.unpack(">L","1234")[0]
825373492

In Python3.2+, int.from_bytes does what you want. See @ryrich's answer

>>> int.from_bytes(b"1234",'big')
825373492
