Drifter Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 This algorithm is supposed to convert base 10 to base 48.expandcollapse popupFunc convertNum($n) ;This function takes a base 10 number and converts it to base 48 ;the values for each place are currently represented in decimal, but will soon be shown as a-z and A-V. ;Find the highest base 48 value that we will need. $j = 0 While 1 If (48^$j * 48) - 1 <= $n Then $j += 1 Else ExitLoop(1) EndIf WEnd ;$j now contains the highest power of 48 needed. Local $outArray[$j + 1] $outStr = "" For $k = $j To 0 Step -1 ;represent the value for this place $outArray[$k] = Int($n / (48 ^ $k)) ;remove it from the original number $n -= ($outArray[$k] * (48 ^ $k)) Next For $i = 0 To $j ;show the values for each place, seperated by a comma. $outStr &= $outArray[$i] & "," Next Return $outStr EndFuncWhat exactly is wrong?
