b=zlib.compress(a)
print(b)

import zlib
a='hellohellohelloheeloohegregrf'
b=zlib.compress(a.encode("utf-8"))
print(b)
Alternative:
import zlib
a= b'hellohellohelloheeloohegregrf'
b=zlib.compress(a)
print(b)
In Python2.x this string literal is called a str object but it's stored as bytes.
In Python3.x this string literal is a str object and its type is Unicode. So, one need to prefix it with b or use .encode to get bytes object.
