so this has to be a UDF? What should the format of the final result be? Must it include an example of how to run the function?

Function BaseConverter(....)
Endfunction

$result=BaseConverter('44680832201','10','36')

(I mean does everything count as part of your score? or just what's inside the function?)

{edit}
Are fractional numbers allowed or integers only?

Like 1101.001 Base 2

Brian

{EDIT AGAIN}
Suppose you had a number ZZZZZZZZZ that was base 35. This number is bound to be larger than what kixtart can handle if converted to base 10. Does it need to be handled anyway?..

Ok.. got it to work for smaller numbers. now to figure out how to handle the BIG ones...
