Converting integer to binary in python

Question

I tried the below code to convert an integer to binary

>>> bin(6)  

'0b110'

I used the below code to erase the '0b'

>>> bin(6)[2:]

'110'

What I should do to show 6 as 00000110 instead of 110?

Answer 1

Try the following code:

>>> '{0:08b}'.format(6)

'00000110'

In case if you're using python version 3.6 and above, you can try:

>>> f'{6:08b}'

'00000110'
