Hi all,
I found this function that converts a integer into a 8 bit binary string.
Would somebody care to explain what is happening in this process?
def intToBin(self, x, count=8):
"""
Parameters: `x`: integer
Returns a 8 bit binary string of x
"""
return "".join(map(lambda y:str((x>>y)&1), range(count-1, -1, -1)))
Thanks
Johan
