Question

Python allows easy creation of an integer from a string of a given base via

int(str, base). 

I want to perform the inverse: creati

Answer 1

def base_changer(number,base):
    buff=97+abs(base-10)
    dic={};buff2='';buff3=10
    for i in range(97,buff+1):
        dic[buff3]=chr(i)
        buff3+=1   
    while(number>=base):
        mod=int(number%base)
        number=int(number//base)
        if (mod) in dic.keys():
            buff2+=dic[mod]
            continue
        buff2+=str(mod)
    if (number) in dic.keys():
        buff2+=dic[number]
    else:
        buff2+=str(number)

    return buff2[::-1]
