New submission from Yuv Gre <ubershme...@gmail.com>: In javascript and java each number has a toString method which allows for easy string representation in different bases. If the function int(x[, base]) exists as a builtin, the inverse should at least be somewhere in the standard library. Personally I believe a "to_string" method would work but would defeat "There should be one way to do it". Perhaps a method called "radix" or "base_convert" which requires a base to convert parameter won't take the place of str(number).
Here are a few possible implementations: http://code.activestate.com/recipes/222109/ http://code.activestate.com/recipes/111286/ http://pastebin.com/f54dd69d6 ---------- components: Interpreter Core, Library (Lib) messages: 91958 nosy: ubershmekel severity: normal status: open title: Add a builtin method to 'int' for base/radix conversion type: feature request versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6783> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
