### Method Detail

#### toBytes

    public static byte[] toBytes(java.lang.String string)

Encodes this String into a sequence of bytes. Each byte contains the low-order bits of its corresponding char.

Parameters:
  `string` - a String value
Returns:
  a byte array with one byte for each char in string

#### fromBytes

    public static java.lang.String fromBytes(byte[] buf,
                                             int off,
                                             int len)

Return a new String with chars corresponding to buf from off to off + len.

Parameters:
  `buf` - an array of bytes
  `off` - the initial offset
  `len` - the length
Returns:
  a new String corresponding to the bytes in buf

#### fromBytes

    public static java.lang.String fromBytes(byte[] buf)

Return a new String with chars corresponding to buf.

Parameters:
  `buf` - an array of bytes
Returns:
  a new String corresponding to the bytes in buf

#### fromBytes

    public static java.lang.String fromBytes(java.nio.ByteBuffer buf)

Return a new String with chars corresponding to buf.

Parameters:
  `buf` - a ByteBuffer of bytes
Returns:
  a new String corresponding to the bytes in buf

#### fromBytes

    public static java.lang.String fromBytes(PyBuffer buf)

Return a new String with chars corresponding to buf, which is a byte-oriented buffer obtained through the buffer API. It depends on the implementation of `PyBuffer.toString()` provided by each buffer implementation.

Parameters:
  `buf` - a PyBuffer of bytes
Returns:
  a new String corresponding to the bytes in buf

#### fromBytes

    public static java.lang.String fromBytes(BaseBytes b)

Return a new String with chars corresponding to b.

Parameters:
  `b` - a BaseBytes containing bytes
Returns:
  a new String corresponding to the bytes in b

#### decapitalize

    public static java.lang.String decapitalize(java.lang.String string)

Decapitalize a String if it begins with a capital letter, e.g.: `decapitalize("FooBar") == "fooBar"`

Parameters:
  `string` - a String
Returns:
  a decapitalized String
