# toBase16String(ByteVector): String
Encodes an array of bytes to a base16 string.
toBase16String(bytes: ByteVector): String
# Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
bytes: ByteVector | Array of bytes to encode. Up to 8 Kbytes |
# Examples
toBase16String("Ride".toBytes()) # Returns "52696465"
toBase16String(base16'52696465') # Returns "52696465"
# toBase58String(ByteVector): String
Encodes an array of bytes to a base58 string.
toBase58String(bytes: ByteVector): String
# Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
bytes: ByteVector | Array of bytes to encode. Up to 64 bytes |
# Examples
toBase58String("Ride".toBytes()) # Returns "37BPKA"
toBase58String(base58'37BPKA') # Returns "37BPKA"
# toBase64String(ByteVector): String
Encodes an array of bytes to a base64 string. Fails if the size of the resulting string exceeds 32 Kbytes.
