title: Pyserial converting bytes to normal string
body: <p>I am receiving a packet through a serial port but when I receive the packet it is of class bytes and looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>b'&gt;0011581158NNNNYNNN  +6\r'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How do I convert this to a normal string? When I try to take information from this string, it comes out as a decimal representation it appears.</p>
