Padding PKCS7 on python

pkcs7.py

    def __init__(self, k=16):
       self.k = k

    ## @param text The padded text for which the padding is to be removed.
    # @exception ValueError Raised when the input padding is missing or corrupt.

        Remove the PKCS#7 padding from a text string
        '''
        nl = len(text)
        val = int(binascii.hexlify(text[-1]), 16)
        if val > self.k:
            raise ValueError('Input is not padded or padding is corrupt')

        l = nl - val
        return text[:l]

    ## @param text The text to encode.

Hi ,
I am trying to use PBKDf2 with sha256 for decryption as i am new cryptography so please suggest what need to be changed.
