To Base

Description

This operation converts a number into its representation in a specified numeric base (or radix).

In a positional numeral system, the radix or base is the number of unique digits, including the digit zero, used to represent numbers. For example, (100)₁₀ is equivalent to 100 (the decimal system is implied in the latter) and represents the number one hundred, while (100)₂ (in the binary system with base 2) represents the number four.

Parameters

These are the parameters you need to configure to use this operation (mandatory parameters are marked with a *):

Radix (Base)*

Enter the target base of your input numbers. Must be a value between 2 and 36.

Example

Suppose you want to transform a series of numbers using a specified base:

1. In your Pipeline, open the required Action configuration and select the input Field.

2. In the Operation field, choose To Base.

3. Set Radix (Base) to 2.

4. Give your Output field a name and click Save. The values in your input field will be decoded. For example:

(100)2 -> 1100100

You can try out operations with specific values using the Input field above the operation. You can enter the value in the example above and check the result in the Output field.
