Bitwise OR?

[Clemens Hepper]

To look at the bit-structure i've implemented a little function:

def bitstring(number, digits=32):
  """lsb------>msb"""
  result = ""
  for a in xrange(digits):
    if number & 1:
      result += '1'
    else:
      result += '0'
   number >>= 1
  return result

I wonder if there is something like sizeof() for int numbers.
