Getting Bitcoin address from pubkey hash

Question

I want to get Bitcoin address from pubkey_hash. I am using the following code:

import util

hash = '62E907B15CBF27D5425399EBF6F0FB50EBB88F18'

print util.hash_to_address("00", hash)

Expected result:

1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa

Current result:

6GEZdxx5UiTk3U3LaLfsWwRaFAvXEpPNS5R4mqsJDXVJcTNNngTyB5i9S76MLTq

Need help.

Answer 1

The unexpected result is due to encoding.

For Python 2

import util

hash = '62e907b15cbf27d5425399ebf6f0fb50ebb88f18'

print util.hash_to_address("00".decode('hex'), hash.decode('hex'))

For Python 3

import util

import binascii

hash = '62e907b15cbf27d5425399ebf6f0fb50ebb88f18'

print util.hash_to_address(binascii.unhexlify("00"), binascii.unhexlify(hash))

This will work.
