I am looking to convert a dec number to a 6 bit binary number.. bin() works fine but omits leading zeros which are important.
for example:
etc… with the largest dec number allowed being 63.
Either what Matt said in the comment (
bin(63)[2:].zfill(6)), or use format strings in Python 2.6+:You can omit the first zero in Python 2.7+ as you can implicitly number groups.
