Convert an integer to binary without using the built-in bin function

Question

This function receives as a parameter an integer and should return a list representing the same value expressed in binary as a list of bits, where the first element in the l

Here is the code for one that I made for college. Click Here for a youtube video of the code.! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGTZzJ5H-CE

__author__ = 'Derek'
print('Int to binary')
intStr = input('Give me an int: ')
myInt = int(intStr)
binStr = ''
while myInt > 0:
    binStr = str(myInt % 2) + binStr
    myInt //= 2
print('The binary of', intStr, 'is', binStr)
print('\nBinary to int')
binStr = input('Give me a binary string: ')
temp = binStr
newInt = 0
power = 0
while len(temp) > 0:   # While the length of the array if greater than zero keep looping through
    bit = int(temp[-1])   # bit is were you temporally store the converted binary number before adding it to the total
    newInt = newInt + bit * 2 ** power  # newInt is the total,  Each time it loops it adds bit to newInt.
    temp = temp[:-1]  # this moves you to the next item in the string.
    power += 1  # adds one to the power each time.
print("The binary number " + binStr, 'as an integer is', newInt)
