Description | nBase(): Converts floating
point numbers between bases.
b2d(): Converts floating point numbers of any base to decimal. d2b(): Converts floating point decimal numbers to any base. March 07, 2000 - Modified nBase() and d2b() to return list of character values when base>36. |

Documentation | Usage:
nBase(NumberStr | {NumberStr}, CurrentBase, NewBase | {NewBase, Precision}) b2d(NumberStr, CurrentBase) d2b(NumberStr | {NumberStr}, NewBase | {NewBase, Precision}) NumberStr: Alphanumeric STR representing a number to any base. if NumberStr is entered in braces, {}, a list of character values will be returned. CurrentBase: The number base of NumberStr. NewBase: The number base that NumberStr should be converted to. Precision: Optional precision. Changes the limit of the number of fractional positions from the default of 12. The default can be permanently changed by editing the line "12->pre" in the program code to the desired value. NOTE: These functions will accept bases greater than 36 but only 35 characters are available. This is permitted so that numbers of greater bases can be converted. If a character of value 3510 or greater is needed, a list of character values is returned instead. NOTE: These functions will accept numbers (var type NUM) in NumberStr so that the user can more easily enter numbers of base 10 or less. Ex: nBase(10,2,1020)="2 [1020]" instead of nBase("10",2,1020)="2 [1020]" Return value:
Examples:
2. nBase(ln(5),10,8) or d2b(ln(5),8)
3. nBase("FF.01",16,2) or d2b(b2d("FF.01",16),2)
4. nBase("FF.01",16,{2,1}) or d2b(b2d("FF.01",16),{2,1})
5. nBase({10.101},2,{11,2}) or d2b({c},{11,2})|c=b2d(10.101,2)
