So how many times do we have to ask you to tell us your EXPECTED output before you start actually doing that?  

'bytes' is a built-in function, but built-in function definitions can be overwritten by redeclaring them.  In this case, you're deleting the bytes function by assigning some read data to `bytes`.  Don't do that.  Either use a variable name other than 'bytes', or recover your bytes function.
