Answer 1

The question pertains to a Python code that converts an integer to a reversed binary string and then reverses it to obtain the binary representation of the integer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question involves understanding how a piece of Python code works, particularly focusing on the conversion of an integer to binary and then reversing that binary string. The code provided defines two functions: integer_to_reverse_binary which converts an integer to a binary string in reverse order and reverse_string which reverses a given string.

When the functions are applied to the integer 6, the integer_to_reverse_binary function first converts 6 into binary, which is '110', but as the binary is being built up in reverse, it initially produces '011'. Then, the reverse_string function reverses this string to get the correct binary representation, which is '110', the binary equivalent of the integer 6.
