Каков быстрый и простой способ упаковки знаковых значений в 4 бита? [закрыто] ⇐ Python

[Гость]

I have a python list of integers, each being in the range [-8,7]. I want to pack these values into an array of bytes that i will send down a socket connection. Since these values can be represented by 4 bits in a two's complement representation, it should be possible to pack two such values in each byte. What is a good and relatively fast way of doing this in python? Thanks
