# 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!* ## Getting Started For installation and learning resources, refer to the [exercism help page](http://exercism.io/languages/haskell). ## Running the tests To run the test suite, execute the following command: ```bash stack test ``` #### If you get an error message like this... ``` No .cabal file found in directory ``` You are probably running an old stack version and need to upgrade it. #### Otherwise, if you get an error message like this... ``` No compiler found, expected minor version match with... Try running "stack setup" to install the correct GHC... ``` Just do as it says and it will download and install the correct compiler version: ```bash stack setup ``` ## Running *GHCi* If you want to play with your solution in GHCi, just run the command: ```bash stack ghci ``` ## Feedback, Issues, Pull Requests The [exercism/haskell](https://github.com/exercism/haskell) repository on GitHub is the home for all of the Haskell exercises. If you have feedback about an exercise, or want to help implementing a new one, head over there and create an issue. We'll do our best to help you! ## Submitting Incomplete Solutions It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
