[Pharo-project] Another stupid question

[Torsten Bergmann]

Add this method to String class:

convertFromBase: sourceBase to: targetBase
        "Convert the receiver (who has to represent a number string) from the 
given source base to 
          the given target base 
                
                'FFFF' convertFromBase: 16 to: 2
        "
        ^(sourceBase asString,'r', self) asNumber printStringBase: targetBase




And then try:

  'FFFF' convertFromBase: 16 to: 10
  'FFFF' convertFromBase: 16 to: 2
  '11111110' convertFromBase: 2 to: 16
  ...

Have fun
