This is not a bug, since %b is not supported in Python 2, only in Python 3: https://docs.python.org/2/library/stdtypes.html#string-formatting-operations No new features will be added to 2.7, so if you need %b you can use Python 3, or in Python 2.7 you can use the newer string format method instead: py> "{:b}".format(42) '101010'
