Below formula seems working to me for converting number from base B1 to base B2. But For intermediate operation we have to be careful, as comiler does all operation with base 10. newNum = (oldNum/newBase)*oldBase + oldNum%newBase;
So Algo, 1. Number, oldBase, newbase; 2. First convert number from oldBase to base 10, TempNumber. [same above formula, newBase = 10, oldBase = B1] 3. Now, Convert TempNumber from base 10 to base B2. [same above formula, newBase = B2, oldBase = 10] ==Number.
