[Tutor] python help!

[D.V.N.Sarma డి.వి.ఎన్.శర్మ]

I have altered the program to run on Python 2.7.3
Perhaps it will run on Python 3 with small/or no alterations.

def show_menu():
 print("=======================")
 print("1-binary to denary")
 print("2-denary to binary")
 print("3-exit")
 print("=======================")


while True:
    show_menu()

    choice = raw_input("please enter an option: ")

    if choice == '1':
        binary = raw_input("Please enter a binary number: ")
        denary = 0
        place_value = 1

        for i in binary [::-1]:
                    denary += place_value * int(i)
                    place_value *= 2

        print("The result is",denary)


    elif choice == '2':
         denary2 = int(raw_input("Please enter a denary number: "))
         remainder = ''
         if denary2 not in range(0,256):
             denary2 = int(input("Please enter a denary number: "))
             continue
         while denary2 > 0:
            remainder = str(denary2 % 2) + remainder
            denary2 /= 2
         print("The result is",remainder)




    elif choice == '3': break


    elif choice == '1' or choice == '2' or choice == '3':
        print("Invalid input-try again!")
