# All Your Base Convert a number, represented as a sequence of digits in one base, to any other base. Implement general base conversion. Given a number in base **a**, represented as a sequence of digits, convert it to base **b**. ## Note - Try to implement the conversion yourself. Do not use something else to perform the conversion for you. ## About [Positional Notation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positional_notation) In positional notation, a number in base **b** can be understood as a linear combination of powers of **b**. The number 42, *in base 10*, means: (4 * 10^1) + (2 * 10^0) The number 101010, *in base 2*, means: (1 * 2^5) + (0 * 2^4) + (1 * 2^3) + (0 * 2^2) + (1 * 2^1) + (0 * 2^0) The number 1120, *in base 3*, means: (1 * 3^3) + (1 * 3^2) + (2 * 3^1) + (0 * 3^0) I think you got the idea! *Yes. Those three numbers above are exactly the same. Congratulations!* ## Resources Remember to check out the Perl 6 [documentation](https://docs.perl6.org/) and [resources](https://perl6.org/resources/) pages for information, tips, and examples if you get stuck. ## Running the tests There is a test script included with the exercise; a file with the extension `.t`. You can run the test script for the exercise by executing the command `prove . --exec=perl6` in the exercise directory. You can also add the `-v` flag e.g. `prove . --exec=perl6 -v` to display all tests, including any optional tests marked as 'TODO'. ## Submitting Incomplete Solutions It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
