Line 9:
n = 29, write 31 = 16 + 8 + 4 + 1. Now we write each exponent as a sum of powers of n, so as 2^4 + 2^3 + 2^1 + 2^0.
Continue by re-writing all of the current term's exponents that are still >= b as a sum of terms that are
n = 16 + 8 + 4 + 1 = 2^4 + 2^3 + 2 + 1 = 2^(2^2) + 2^(2 + 1) + 2 + 1.
