You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Number base conversion is when you express a stored integer in an integer base, such as in octal (base 8) or binary (base 2). It also is involved when you take a string representing a number in a given base and convert it to the stored integer form. Normally, a stored integer is in binary, but that's typically invisible to the user, who normally enters or sees stored integers as decimal.
Write a function (or identify the built-in function) which is passed a non-negative integer to convert, and another integer representing the base. It should return a string containing the digits of the resulting number, without leading zeros except for the number 0 itself. For the digits beyond 9, one should use the lowercase English alphabet, where the digit a = 9+1, b = a+1, etc. The decimal number 26 expressed in base 16 would be 1a, for example.
Write a second function which is passed a string and an integer base, and it returns an integer representing that string interpreted in that base.
The programs may be limited by the word size or other such constraint of a given language. There is no need to do error checking for negatives, bases less than 2, or inappropriate digits.
Ada
Ada provides built-in capability to convert between all bases from 2 through 16. This task requires conversion for bases up to 36. The following program demonstrates such a conversion using an iterative solution. <lang ada>with Ada.Text_Io; use Ada.Text_Io; with Ada.Strings.Fixed; With Ada.Strings.Unbounded;
procedure Number_Base_Conversion is
Max_Base : constant := 36; subtype Base_Type is Integer range 2..Max_Base; Num_Digits : constant String := "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"; Invalid_Digit : exception; function To_Decimal(Value : String; Base : Base_Type) return Integer is use Ada.Strings.Fixed; Result : Integer := 0; Decimal_Value : Integer; Radix_Offset : Natural := 0; begin for I in reverse Value'range loop Decimal_Value := Index(Num_Digits, Value(I..I)) - 1; if Decimal_Value < 0 then raise Invalid_Digit; end if; Result := Result + (Base**Radix_Offset * Decimal_Value); Radix_Offset := Radix_Offset + 1; end loop; return Result; end To_Decimal; function To_Base(Value : Natural; Base : Base_Type) return String is use Ada.Strings.Unbounded; Result : Unbounded_String := Null_Unbounded_String; Temp : Natural := Value; Base_Digit : String(1..1); begin if Temp = 0 then return "0"; end if; while Temp > 0 loop Base_Digit(1) := Num_Digits((Temp mod Base) + 1); if Result = Null_Unbounded_String then Append(Result, Base_Digit); else Insert(Source => Result, Before => 1, New_Item => Base_Digit); end if; Temp := Temp / Base; end loop; return To_String(Result); end To_Base;
begin
Put_Line("26 converted to base 16 is " & To_Base(26, 16)); Put_line("1a (base 16) is decimal" & Integer'image(To_Decimal("1a", 16)));
end Number_Base_Conversion;</lang>
ALGOL 68
Built in or standard distribution routines
The formatted transput in ALGOL 68 uses the format type (mode). This format type has many similarities with modern regular expressions and can be used to convert string patterns to and from many of the built in types (modes) in ALGOL 68. Here is an example converting a numbers base.
<lang algol68>INT base = 16, from dec = 26; BITS to bits;
FORMAT hex repr = $n(base)r2d$;
FILE f; STRING str;
associate(f, str); putf(f, (hex repr, BIN from dec)); print(("Hex: ",str, new line));
reset(f); getf(f, (hex repr, to bits)); print(("Int: ",ABS to bits, new line))</lang> Output:
Hex: 1a Int: +26
Note that the only conversions "officially" available are for the bases 2r, 4r, 8r and 16r. But ALGOL 68G allows formatting for all numbers in the range 2r to 16r.
Implementation example
Handles signed and unsigned numbers from all bases.
<lang algol68>STRING numeric alpha = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
PROC raise value error = ([]STRING args)VOID: (
put(stand error, "Value error"); STRING sep := ": "; FOR index TO UPB args - 1 DO put(stand error, (sep, args[index])); sep:=", " OD; new line(stand error); stop
);
PROC base n = (INT num, base)STRING: (
PROC base n = (INT num, base)STRING: ( num = 0 | "" | base n(num OVER base, base) + numeric alpha[@0][num MOD base]); ( num = 0 | "0" |: num > 0 | base n(num, base) | "-" + base n(-num, base) )
);
PROC unsigned int = (STRING repr, INT base)INT:
IF UPB repr < LWB repr THEN 0 ELSE INT pos; IF NOT char in string(repr[UPB repr], pos, numeric alpha) THEN raise value error("CHAR """+repr[UPB repr]+""" not valid") FI; unsigned int(repr[:UPB repr-1], base) * base + pos - 1 FI
PROC int = (STRING repr, INT base)INT:
( repr[LWB repr]="-" | -unsigned int(repr[LWB repr + 1:], base) | unsigned int(repr, base) );
[]INT test = (-256, -255, -26, -25, 0, 25, 26, 255, 256); FOR index TO UPB test DO
INT k = test[index]; STRING s = base n(k,16); # returns the string 1a # INT i = int(s,16); # returns the integer 26 # print((k," => ", s, " => ", i, new line))
OD</lang> Output:
-256 => -100 => -256 -255 => -ff => -255 -26 => -1a => -26 -25 => -19 => -25 +0 => 0 => +0 +25 => 19 => +25 +26 => 1a => +26 +255 => ff => +255 +256 => 100 => +256

Haskell
It's actually more useful to represent digits internally as numbers instead of characters, because then one can define operations that work directly on this representation.
So conversion to and from digits represented as 0-9 and a-z is done in an additional step.
<lang haskell>import Data.List import Data.Char
toBase :: Int -> Int -> [Int] toBase b v = toBase' [] v where
toBase' a 0 = a toBase' a v = toBase' (r:a) q where (q,r) = v `divMod` b
fromBase :: Int -> [Int] -> Int fromBase b ds = foldl' (\n k -> n * b + k) 0 ds
toAlphaDigits :: [Int] -> String toAlphaDigits = map convert where
convert n | n < 10 = chr (n + ord '0') | otherwise = chr (n + ord 'a' - 10)
fromAlphaDigits :: String -> [Int] fromAlphaDigits = map convert where
convert c | isDigit c = ord c - ord '0' | isUpper c = ord c - ord 'A' + 10 | isLower c = ord c - ord 'a' + 10</lang>

<lang haskell>*Main> toAlphaDigits $ toBase 16 $ 42 "2a"

Icon and Unicon
Icon and Unicon natively take integers in radix form for bases 2 through 36. There is no need to convert to integer as the value will be coerced when needed. However, a conversion routine is needed to convert integers back into radix form.
<lang Icon>procedure main()
every ( ns := "16r5a" | "-12r1a" ) & ( b := 8 | 12 | 16 ) do { ns2 := convert(n := numeric(ns),b) printf("ns=%s -> n=%d -> %s\n",ns,n,ns2) }
end
link printf
procedure convert(i,b) #: convert i to base b radix representation static digits initial digits := &digits || &lcase
i := integer(i) | runerr(101, i) # arg/error checking /b := 10 | ( 2 < (b := integer(b)) <= *digits ) | runerr(205,b)
if b = 10 then return i else { p := (s := "", (i := -(0 > i),"-")|"") || b || "r" # prefix/setup until i = 0 & *s > 0 do s ||:= digits[1 + 1( i % b, i /:= b)]
return p || reverse(s) }
end</lang>
printf.icn provides printf There are several conversion routines for bases in the IPL, however, none returns the input radix form.
Output:
ns=16r5a -> n=90 -> 8r132 ns=16r5a -> n=90 -> 12r76 ns=16r5a -> n=90 -> 16r5a ns=-12r1a -> n=-22 -> -8r26 ns=-12r1a -> n=-22 -> -12r1a ns=-12r1a -> n=-22 -> -16r16
J
J supports direct specification of integers by base. The numbers are expressed as the base to be used (using base 10), the letter b, followed by the number itself. Following the initial letter b, other (lower case) letters represent "digts" 10 (a) through 35 (z), as in these examples: <lang j> 2b100 8b100 10b_100 16b100 36b100 36bzy 4 64 _100 256 1296 1294</lang>
Additionally, J has primitives #. and #: for dealing with base conversion issues.
Here are programs for conversion of numeric values to literals, and of literals to numbers: <lang j>numerals=: '0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz' baseNtoL=: numerals {~ #.inv baseLtoN=: [ #. numerals i. ]</lang> Examples of use: <lang j> 2 baseNtoL 100 101 1100100 1100101
16 baseNtoL 26
1a
36 baseLtoN 'zy'
1294</lang> These may be combined so the conversion performed is derived from the type of argument received. <lang j> base=: baseNtoL :: baseLtoN

A real base conversion example:

let rec to_base' a v = if v = 0 then a else to_base' (v mod b :: a) (v / b) in to_base' [] v
let from_base b ds =

let to_alpha_digit n =
if n < 10 then char_of_int (n + int_of_char '0') else char_of_int (n + int_of_char 'a' - 10)
let to_alpha_digits ds =
let buf = Buffer.create (List.length ds) in List.iter (fun i -> Buffer.add_char buf (to_alpha_digit i)) ds; Buffer.contents buf
let from_alpha_digit c = match c with
'0'..'9' -> int_of_char c - int_of_char '0' | 'A'..'Z' -> int_of_char c - int_of_char 'A' + 10 | 'a'..'z' -> int_of_char c - int_of_char 'a' + 10

Perl
To parse from a base: <lang perl>use POSIX;
my ($num, $n_unparsed) = strtol('1a', 16); $n_unparsed == 0 or die "invalid characters found"; print "$num\n"; # prints "26"</lang>
To format into a base: <lang perl>sub digitize
- Converts an integer to a single digit.
{my $i = shift; $i < 10 ? $i : ('a' .. 'z')[$i - 10];}
sub to_base
{my ($int, $radix) = @_; my $numeral = ; do { $numeral .= digitize($int % $radix); } while $int = int($int / $radix); scalar reverse $numeral;}</lang>
PHP
PHP has a base_convert() function that directly converts between strings of one base and strings of another base: <lang php>base_convert("26", 10, 16); // returns "1a"</lang>
If you want to convert a string to an integer, the intval() function optionally takes a base argument when given a string: <lang php>intval("1a", 16); // returns 26</lang>
To go the other way around, I guess you can use base_convert() again; I am unaware of a better way: <lang php>base_convert(26, 10, 16); // returns "1a"</lang>
In addition, there are specialized functions for converting certain bases: <lang php>// converts int to binary string decbin(26); // returns "11010" // converts int to octal string decoct(26); // returns "32" // converts int to hex string dechex(26); // returns "1a" // converts binary string to int bindec("11010"); // returns 26 // converts octal string to int octdec("32"); // returns 26 // converts hex string to int hexdec("1a"); // returns 26</lang>
PL/I
<lang PL/I> convert: procedure (N, base) returns (character (64) varying) recursive;
declare N fixed binary (31), base fixed binary; declare table (0:15) character ( '0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f'); declare s character (64) varying;
if N = 0 then return ();
s = convert(N/base, base); return (s || table(mod(N, base)) );
end convert; </lang>

Pop11
Pop11 can input and output routines can use any base up to 36 (depending on value 'pop_pr_radix' variable). 'radix_apply' runs i/o routine temporarly setting 'pop_pr_radix' to given value. 'sprintf' procedure instead of printing returns string. So, to convert number to given value we just compose built-in procedures:
<lang pop11>define number_to_base(n, base);
radix_apply(n, '%p', sprintf, base);
enddefine;</lang>
In input base optionally preceeds the number, for example 8:15 is 13. So, to convert string in given base we need to prepend base prefix and read number from string:
<lang pop11>define string_in_base_to_number(s, base);
incharitem(stringin(base >< ':' >< s))();
enddefine;</lang>

Python
Converting from string to number is easy: <lang python>i = int('1a',16) # returns the integer 26</lang> Converting from number to string is harder: <lang python>digits = "0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" def baseN(num,b):
return (((num == 0) and "0" ) or ( baseN(num // b, b).lstrip("0") + digits[num % b]))
- alternatively:
def baseN(num,b):
if num == 0: return "0" result = "" while num != 0: num, d = divmod(num, b) result += digits[d] return result[::-1] # reverse
k = 26 s = baseN(k,16) # returns the string 1a</lang>

Ruby

So sometimes it may appear to parse something and get a result, but it is only based on part of the input string: <lang ruby>"59".to_i(7) # returns 5, but this is probably not what you wanted</lang>
