It's not quite clear to me what you mean, but here are 2 guesses: - If you want to convert an ASCII character to its ASCII integer value, use ord() - If you want to convert an integer into a string of its base-2 representation, use bin() [requires Python 2.6, I think] Cheers, Chris -- Follow the path of the Iguana... http://rebertia.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
