My python code for converting binary values to decimal is not working as I want
-1
binary=input('Please, enter the binary value: ')
power=len(binary)-1
denary=0
for x in binary:
denary=denary+(int(x)*(2^power))
power=power-1
if power<0:
break
print (denary)
I tried to write a code in python that converts binary values to decimal but the code isn't working properly, not all outputs are correct. Can someone help me identify the problem?

Please add a few example inputs, along with the incorrect values this code generates and the correct values your code should generate.

note that there is an optional second parameter that can be passed tointto specify the base, e.g:int('11', 2)gives 3

In Python, the "raise to the power" operator is **, not ^:
denary=denary+(int(x)*(2**power))
^ is the 'exclusive OR' operator.
