python convert binary number code example

Example 1: binary representation python

>>> bin(88)
'0b1011000'
>>> int('0b1011000', 2)
88
>>> 

>>> a=int('01100000', 2)
>>> b=int('00100110', 2)
>>> bin(a & b)
'0b100000'
>>> bin(a | b)
'0b1100110'
>>> bin(a ^ b)
'0b1000110'

Example 2: how to convert from binary to base 10 in python

def getBaseTen(binaryVal):
	count = 0

	#reverse the string
    binaryVal = binaryVal[::-1]

    #go through the list and get the value of all 1's
	for i in range(0, len(binaryVal)):
    	if(binaryVal[i] == "1"):
            count += 2**i
    
    return count
