title: TypeConversion of a string to bytearray
body: <p>I have a string value:</p>
  <p>Example:</p>
  <pre><code>string msg = &quot;array('B', [255, 216, 255, 224, 0, 16, 74, 70, 73, 70, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0,
   1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 255, 219, 0, 67, 0, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2,
  2, 2, 2, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2, 5, 4, 4, 3, 4, 6, 5, 6, 6, 6, 5, 6, 6, 6,
  7, 9, 8, 6, 7, 9, 7, 6, 6, 8, 11, 8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 6, 8, 11,
  12, 11, 10, 12, 9, 10, 10, 10, 255, 219, 0, 67, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2,
  5, 3, 3, 5, 10, 7, 6, 7, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10])&quot;
  </code></pre>
  <p>I want to convert this string value to type <strong>byte[]</strong>.</p>
  <pre><code>private byte[] data;
  //after type conversion from string to byte array
  Debug.Log(&quot;data in byte array is: &quot; + data);
  </code></pre>
  <p>Output should be:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>data in byte array is: [255, 216, 255, 224, 0, 16, 74, 70, 73, 70, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0,
  1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 255, 219, 0, 67, 0, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2,
  2, 2, 2, 4, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2, 5, 4, 4, 3, 4, 6, 5, 6, 6, 6, 5, 6, 6, 6,
  7, 9, 8, 6, 7, 9, 7, 6, 6, 8, 11, 8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 6, 8, 11,
  12, 11, 10, 12, 9, 10, 10, 10, 255, 219, 0, 67, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2,
  5, 3, 3, 5, 10, 7, 6, 7, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10, 10]</p>

  <p>Since the actual <em>string msg</em> is a very large value, I want to do this with minimum execution time possible.</p>
