Converting a numpy.ndarray to string

Use ndarray.tostring -

my_string_numpy_array.tostring()

Sample output -

In [176]: my_string_numpy_array.tostring()
Out[176]: 'My name is Aman Raparia'

The right answer for numpy is Divakar's ndarray.tostring.

An alternative is to use chr on each array element and join together (for a non numpy array for example):

>>> ''.join([chr(e) for e in my_string_numpy_array])
'My name is Aman Raparia'
