Code monkeys shoo! A REAL PROGRAMMER is here!

The following code will input any base (from 2-62) and output
any base (from 2-62) with the input being any precision up to
machine memory.

Whew! On my machine that would be 32 fucking GiB! A whole
troop of code monkeys would take decades just to punch it in!

Here is the 2 lines of C code:

================
Begin
================

// ./cnvbase number_string base_in base_out

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <gmp.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{

int base_in, base_out;
mpz_t num_in;

base_in = atoi(argv[2]);
base_out = atoi(argv[3]);

mpz_init_set_str(num_in, argv[1], base_in);

mpz_out_str(stdout, base_out, num_in);

putchar('\n');

===================
End
===================

Example:

../cnvbase z00000 62 10

55884102752 = 61*62^5

Since this uses the fantastic GNU Multi-precision Library (GMP)
the input/output formats differ somewhat. Consult the GMP
documentation for details.

How about some fun?

../cnvbase fuckmicroslopusersfuckmicroslopusersfuckmicroslopusersfuckmicroslopusersfuckmicroslopusersfuckmicroslopusersfuckmicroslopusersfuckmicroslopusers 62 10

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Fixed numeric types are long dead. Multi-precision is the new way.

The GNU Multi-precision Library is the greatest in the fucking world.

Microslop can only shit its pants.

Are you kidding me? Those are only integer bases. Why dont' you do that
for non-integer bases as well.

Let's see if it requires GNU, or requires coding skill.

Non-integer, or more properly irrational, bases have no practical
utility whatsoever, aside perhaps from some extremely narrow niche.
They are a mathematical curiosity at best.

If there is an area where you do have expertise it's things that have no
pratical utility whatsoever.

There's really no difference, in math, between integer and non-integer
bases. And of course there's no difference in how they're handled
compared to integers, when changing bases. So I don't know what the deal
is with you and others here not wanting to try it.

Isn't revealing who's a Code-Monkey and who a sub-Code-Monkey a
practical use? This little problem tells a lot about COLA frequenters.

It was hard to believe, first, what Farley said about you guys, as far
as programming is concerned; but now I'm beginning to see there was more
than just a grain of truth in it.

No, that's what a lazy ass little Bozo would say also, when being
checked. How does one distinguish between the two?

Does one even have to?

Expecting you to support your years of wild-ass, braggadocious,
delusional claims doesn't make me an asshole.

owl: And if it were 60 million records instead of 6000...

Feeb: Then I'd write it in C, using a reentrant lexical parser
and parallel processing.

I use POV-Ray but will have to move to Blender because POV-Ray does
not do Euler angle rotations. This is a bummer.

I would like to contribute by implementing Euler angle rotation but,
jeezus fucking christ, I can't do everything now, can I?

Holy fuck! I am only a single human being. The GIMP people want me
to implement netpbm HDR formats. The ImageMagick folks want me to
implement AI. I gotta eat, sleep, piss, and shit. Give this poor boy

But I am a FOSS person. I can do anything and everything and I can

This isn't a programming newsgroup, bozo.

You and Feeb are objectively the worst programmers on cola, among those
that do it for a living (rbowman, Ahlstrom) or a hobby (me, Relf). It's
no coincidence you both use the stupid term 'code monkey'.

In the past I posted 5 simple but mostly useful programming challenges
for Feeb:

<o6fqH.420221$Av7.358131@fx34.iad>
<TwuzH.197436$sW6.104370@fx47.iad>
<n7uAH.19256$Eo4.8778@fx44.iad>
<JzLDH.35307$R82.29164@fx46.iad>
<F5Q9I.74959$RS3.10472@fx18.iad>

Despite claiming to be a "computing virtuoso" and "programming wizard"
he refused to try 3 of them, plagiarized his answer to one, and ignored
the requirements of one and posted some invalid, non-working perl code.

Total fucking FAIL.

He always has an excuse, but he expects others to try his esoteric
challenges.

In 2020 I made Feeb cry and surrender:

"I hereby declare that I will never again become involved with string
programming. Therefore, I will accept no string manipulation challenges."

LMAO! What a wimp.

Now it's your turn. Don't let me down. You already ran away from one
simple program - matrix multiplication using [i][j] addressing - so it's
not looking good.

There are three infallible ways of pleasing an author, and the three form a
rising scale of compliment: 1, to tell him you have read one of his books; 2,
to tell him you have read all of his books; 3, to ask him to let you read the
manuscript of his forthcoming book. No. 1 admits you to his respect; No. 2
admits you to his admiration; No. 3 carries you clear into his heart.
