Package Exports

basealphabet

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (basealphabet) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

basealphabet

represent a number with any base using any alphabet (JS)

Use it like this:

var BaseAlphabet = require('basealphabet').BaseAlphabet;

var alpha32 = new BaseAlphabet({
    alphabet: '0123456789ABCDEFGHJKMNPQRTUVWXY$',   // provide an alphabet for your number system
    radix: 32,                                      // a base, there are 32 chars in my alphabet
    caseInsensitive: true,                          // yes, 'A' is the same as 'a'
    alias: { '醁' : 'Y' }                           // this 醁 is the same as 'Y'
});

console.log("AZQ=",alpha32.toDecimal("A$Q"));

assert(alpha32.toDecimal("$") == 31);
assert(alpha32.toDecimal("0") == 0);
assert(alpha32.toDecimal("10") == 32);
assert(alpha32.toDecimal("1$") == 32+31);

assert(alpha32.toAlphabet(31) == '$');
try {
    assert(alpha32.toAlphabet(31) == 'A');
} catch(e) {
    assert(true);
}
assert(alpha32.toAlphabet(32+31) == '1$');

assert(alpha32.toDecimal("醁") == 30);
assert(alpha32.toDecimal("11") == (32+1));
assert(alpha32.toDecimal("醁1") == ((32*30)+1));

console.log("Random base32 num with eight digits:",alpha32.randomNumber(8));

Enjoy.
