How do you convert a number to 8 bit binary in python?

I am currently making a python program that is byte adder related, it will prompt the user to enter 2 integers, add them together and if it's within the range of the actual size of a byte [0 to 255] display that number and also give the corresponding value in its 8 bit binary form, for example, the calculation is equal to 1, show the binary number which python declares as the correct one.

This is the task that I am doing ~

"The program must check the input data for the data type permitted and the data value limitations [the value of the integer must not exceed the actual size of byte-coded integers, i.e. min 00000000 and max 11111111 in Base 2 or min 0 and max 255 in Base 10 for positive integers" Input in both binary and decimal format with conversion to binary

def add[]:
    Num1 = int[input["Input the first number between 0 and 255, the calculated answer must not be above 255: "]]
    Num2 = int[input["Input the second number between 0 and 255, the calculated answer must not be above 255: "]]

    calculatedanswer = Num1+Num2

    if calculatedanswer >= 0 and calculatedanswer 255:
        print["Please ensure the added numbers are above 0 and below 255"]
        add[]

This is my code so far, I have no trouble getting it to display the standard decimal number, but I really can't get the bin[calculatedanswer] to show the binary equivalent of it. I tried using this method that I found on YouTube.

I think my main problem here is my lack of understanding of how "bin" works on python as this is really the first time I am using it.

I have put asterisks around the line that I am having trouble with.

    Given a decimal number as input, the task is to write a Python program to convert the given decimal number into an equivalent binary number.
    Examples : 

    Input : 7                                                         
    Output :111
    
    Input :10
    Output :1010

    Method #1: Recursive solution

    DecimalToBinary[num]:
            if num >= 1:
                DecimalToBinary[num // 2]
               print num % 2 

    Below is the implementation of the above recursive solution: 

    Python3

    def DecimalToBinary[num]:

        if num >= 1:

            DecimalToBinary[num // 2]

        print[num % 2, end = '']

    if __name__ == '__main__':

        dec_val = 24

        DecimalToBinary[dec_val]

    Method #2: Decimal to binary using in-built function 

    Python3

    def decimalToBinary[n]:

        return bin[n].replace["0b", ""]

    if __name__ == '__main__':

        print[decimalToBinary[8]]

        print[decimalToBinary[18]]

        print[decimalToBinary[7]]

    Method #3:Without in-built function

    Python3

    def decimalToBinary[n]:

        return "{0:b}".format[int[n]]

    if __name__ == '__main__':

        print[decimalToBinary[8]]

        print[decimalToBinary[18]]

        print[decimalToBinary[7]]

    or 

    Python3

    decNum = 4785

    print[bin[decNum][2:]]

    decNum1 = 10

    print[bin[decNum1][2:]]

    decNum2 = 345

    print[bin[decNum2][2:]]

    Output

    1001010110001
    1010
    101011001
    


    How do I convert a number to binary in Python?

    In Python, you can simply use the bin[] function to convert from a decimal value to its corresponding binary value. And similarly, the int[] function to convert a binary to its decimal value. The int[] function takes as second argument the base of the number to be converted, which is 2 in case of binary numbers.

    How do I convert numbers to binary?

    Converting decimal integer to binary To convert integer to binary, start with the integer in question and divide it by 2 keeping notice of the quotient and the remainder. Continue dividing the quotient by 2 until you get a quotient of zero. Then just write out the remainders in the reverse order.

    What is an 8 bit binary number?

    An 8 bit binary number can represent a maximum of decimal 255= binary 11111111. Calculated as follows: 1*128 +1*64+1*32+1*16+1*8+1*4+1*2+1+1 = decimal 255. Here is another 8 bit binary number –01101011.
