The values you gave are not really printable characters, but in general ...

c = "%s" % '\x1a'
print c

Hint:
ord('\x1a')=26
ord('\x05')=5

ord() is a built-in function which returns the ASCII value of the passed charachter.

Edit: @ vegaseat:

#python 2.5.2
>>> c="%s" % '\x1a'
>>> c
'\x1a'
>>> print c
                            #nothing gets printed

Like I said ...

>>> c = "%s" % '\x1a'
>>> c
'\x1a'

or

>>> c = chr(ord('\x1a'))
>>> c
'\x1a'

.. since c is not a printable character.
However ...

>>> c = "%s" % '\x41'
>>> c
'A'
