This works also:
>>> bin(15)[2:].zfill(32)
'1
Sorry, I didn't quite make it clear. The issue isn't about limiting
the length (as I won't be using integers bigger than this). The
problem is that sometimes the output is shorter.

Binary string sounds ambiguous. Firstly, everything is binary. Secondly,
strings are byte strings or Unicode strings. In any case, I'm not 100% sure
what you mean - giving an example of input and output would help!

Is this what you're looking for?
Python 2.6.2 (r262:71600, Jun 8 2009,
Hi,
I know the bin function converts an int into a binary string.
Unfortunately, I need to know the length of the binary string when it
is being read in and len(bin(x)) depends on x. Is there any way to
limit it to 4 bytes?
Thanks for your assistance,
Chris
