'0xa', but the real hexadecimal number of 10 is 'a', why python puts a '0x',
and how i can get just the real hexadedcimal number, for example i want to
write in a file 10 in hexadecimal, but if i use hex(10) the result is '0xa'
as a string, is not the same as 'a'.

If you want to do the conversion over a list of numbers, try:
    map(lambda a : "%x" % a, x)
