If I have a list of binary
a=['0b11001000', '0b01001100', '0b00111100', '0b00011111',
'0b11110000', '0b01011010', '0b10010110', '0b00011110']
I'd like to convert all the string elements into integers and put it back nicely to list of binary this time:
a=[0b11001000, 0b01001100, 0b00111100, 0b00011111,
0b11110000, 0b01011010, 0b10010110, 0b00011110]
What shall I do?
Use int with base 2:
>>> a=['0b11001000', '0b01001100', '0b00111100', '0b00011111',
... '0b11110000', '0b01011010', '0b10010110', '0b00011110']
>>> [int(x, 2) for x in a]
[200, 76, 60, 31, 240, 90, 150, 30]
Give this a try:
a = [int(x, 2) for x in a]
Though in your second list you express the integers as binary, they are still of type int. You can convert the strings, however:
a = [int(x, 2) for x in a]
