Say you can to convert from base 16 to 7. These are just examples, assume arbitrary bases. Do you know of a simple algorithm to do that without converting into a temporary (decimal) integer?
In Matlab, `x = '3E4A'; t = base2dec(x, 16); y = dec2base(t, 7)` works, but the intermediate step limits the number `t` to the maximum allowed integer size (actuallty a little less). I'd like to do it without that intermediate step, so that it works for an arbitrary number of digits of `x`.
