That’s easy, int('11', 2) and bin(3) should be enough.

Are you crazy or is it an assignment?  Write code according to this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_number#Conversion_to_and_from_other_numeral_systems
(or other methods you can find on the Internet or in math textbooks).
Alternatively, you can find out how it is done in other programming
languages or even Python itself.  And use that.

PS. actually, it is impossible to do it in plain Python without using
built-in functions.  Because multiplication, division and
exponentiation and whatnot are built-ins.

OP, please tell your mail provider that it shouldn’t filter
swearwords, and even if it does, that it shouldn’t inform me of that.
