For what its worth - we say "base 10" to mean "decimal". But 10 =
decimal only when we have already agreed we are talking decimal!

Okay, so let's see where we are.
Integers, as well as strings, and everything else, are stored in memory
as binary.
This is a given, because the architecture of the computer is binary.
You say 'the string representation of the integer is in base-10.'
Okay, well, python's representation of any obje

No. It converts a binary representation of a number into a

Ah, well, it's just the terminology you were using was a bit misleading.
You say
' Hey Rooy, so its possible to copy binary numbers from memory?'
All his function does is converts an integer (that's in memory, yes)
into a binary number

Hallo to All,
Hey Rooy, so its possible to copy binary numbers from memory? I had the
impression that this could be done, but obviously it is too much for
me. This way is going to be faster than the hack that I tried before,
right? Thanks for the module : )
