this sounds like a homework problem, so no code here. however, the answer is trivial once you realize that all integers are natively available in any base, whether it be 2, 8, 10, 16, etc. since you want base two, the easiest way to solve your problem is to display each bit (Binary digIT [or is that BInary digiT?]) one at a time. the best way to solve your problem is through an iterative process. you may have to tweak your initial solution(s), but you would be well on your way there! good luck! -- wesley ps. this is a standard programming exercise... it's even in "Core Python" (see below) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Core Python Programming", Prentice Hall, (c)2007,2001 http://corepython.com wesley.j.chun :: wescpy-at-gmail.com python training and technical consulting cyberweb.consulting : silicon valley, ca http://cyberwebconsulting.com _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
