arbitrary base conversion in javascript
i was a bit surprised to completely fail in finding an online arbitrary base converter which didn't need a download, so wrote this real quick-like. enter a value and the alphabet in the top two boxes, enter the destination alphabet in the bottom-right box, and click the "v" button. to go the other way, click the "^" button. note that the stock decimal alphabet is "0123456789", but you could do something crazy like "987654310" if you want. this would make a handy decoder ring type thing, if only the number values could be arbitrarily large too.. orion elenzil 20080905 |
