base_convert

This script is used to convert integer values between to arbitrary bases. The numbers are supplied and returned as strings and the bases are supplied as integers.

n = base_convert("789",10,8);    //  decimal to octal returns "1425"
n = base_convert("abc",16,10);   //  hex to decimal returns "2748"
n = base_convert("123",10,2);    //  decimal to binary returns "1111011"

NOTE: Check related scripts for several faster conversions of specific bases.

base_convert(number,oldbase,newbase)
Returns a string of digits representing the given number converted form one base to another.
COPY/// base_convert(number,oldbase,newbase)
//
//  Returns a string of digits representing the
//  given number converted form one base to another.
//  Base36 is the largest base supported.
//
//      number      integer value to be converted, string
//      oldbase     base of the given number, integer
//      newbase     base of the returned value, integer
