More information:

Provides simple conversion between numbers in different bases. With one function, numbers can be converted between decimal, binary, octal and hexadecimal. Control over the formatting of non-decimal numbers is provided, and you can even output fractional parts in non-decimal numbers. Bases can be added as required - see the comments for more details. An advanced example (base 60 conversion) is included to demonstrate non-standard bases.
