Base Conversion Finally Came Up?

[Gord]

I was doing some conversion of this and that and for some reason it
occurred to me that a form might be useful for this page of conversion
explanation:

Anyone out there interested in converting that page to a form method
conversion display from base n to base10 to base m?

m ---> 10 ---> n
n ---> 10 ---> m

Please forward response to (e-mail address removed) without the
NOSPAM part

I'm fairly sure Dr Stockton has already done that.

That isn't how Usenet works. Replies go to the group, unless something
personal needs to be said to the poster. It's in the group FAQ:

I wrote these routines for some students so the code is very much over
simplified.

Well, it's naive to assume that one must go via base ten; otherwise,
<URL:http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/js-maths.htm#Base> appears to handle
everything for which the numerical value is reasonable.

Converting non-integers, or where Number is inadequate, seems
unreasonable.

What fine work.

"...where Number is inadequate, seems unreasonable" is accurate, but
not the 100% free effort one might imagine.

" Please weight the combinations of base44 to create a reversable form
from http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/js-maths.htm#Frm2 " would be a bit
much to ask for someone obviously on so many paths.

Thanks for the reference,
