change-base
Change number base (radix) - Feb 1994
B = chb(A,a,b) change numerical base: a,b scalars from 2 to 64 , A,B strings. Number A in base a , expressed in base b by B. Symbols are 0 .. 9 A .. Z a .. z @ &.
Example: '-54.13'-chb(chb('-54.13',6,27),27,6)
Note: since it operates by converting to and from doubles, it is not perfectly reliable for very long numbers in high bases.
