I think a lot of time and effort could have been saved by simply presenting the general case (i.e. converting base x to base 10, then from base 10 to base y), with various examples. Nevertheless, I applaud the quality and quantity work you put into this document. Very thorough.

This seems to claim the most efficient way to convert from base 2 to base 4 is as follows. First, convert from base 2 to base 10. Next, convert from base 10 to base 4. This is wrong, a more efficient way would be to group digits in pairs, and convert each pair in isolation.

Well, perhaps it indeed was the most efficient way to write a computer program which would then write the 800-page book.

I once needed to convert a hex number (base 16) to base 2. Looks like I need to buy a different book to accomplish this.

It's April 1, 2015 already? minimario

this book is rather shitty :(

Please get this published somewhere! I need this in printed form :)

By the way, when can we expect part 2, where we'll learn how to convert between bases up to 16?

I think your book is missing cases of converting from base A to base B, where A = B. Regardless, a fine piece of effort!

I need help converting to/from base 1 and it's not covered in this book...

This stunning treatise seems to redefine the field of number theory.
