Introduction to Bitwise Operators
int()'s Second Parameter
Python has an int()
function that you’ve seen a bit of already. It can turn non-integer input into an integer, like this:
int("42") # ==> 42
What you might not know is that the int
function actually has an optional second parameter.
int("110", 2) # ==> 6
When given a string containing a number and the base that number is in, the function will return the value of that number converted to base ten.
