Not so fast
Hex 0x4000 => 16384.
Octal 4000 2048.
36617 in bin => 1000111100001001 which does not look at all like a 4000 in
any numerical system.
With more tests, 4,000, 4,00 4,0 and 4, return the same number.
But 3,0 returns 36586
And 2,0 returns 36557
And 1,0 returns 36526
36,617 - 36586 = 31
36586 - 36557 = 29
36557 - 36526 = 31
And it does not take "0,0"
So there is no pattern... Interesting bug. Random is not.
