# 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!* ## Rust Installation Refer to the [exercism help page][help-page] for Rust installation and learning resources. ## Writing the Code Execute the tests with: ```bash $ cargo test ``` All but the first test have been ignored. After you get the first test to pass, remove the ignore flag (`#[ignore]`) from the next test and get the tests to pass again. The test file is located in the `tests` directory. You can also remove the ignore flag from all the tests to get them to run all at once if you wish. Make sure to read the [Modules](https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/second-edition/ch07-00-modules.html) chapter if you haven't already, it will help you with organizing your files. ## Feedback, Issues, Pull Requests The [exercism/rust](https://github.com/exercism/rust) repository on GitHub is the home for all of the Rust exercises.
