This is a package for doing integer arithmetic while using a different
|
|
base representation than normal. In base n arithmetic you have n
|
|
symbols which have a representation. I was going to call them
|
|
"glyphs", but being text strings they are not really. On Tye McQueen's
|
|
whimsical suggestion I settled on the name Math::Fleximal, the set of
|
|
text representations is called a "flex", and the representation of
|
|
individual digits are the "flecks". These names are somewhat
|
|
unofficial...
|
|
|
|
This allows you to do basic arithmetic using whatever digits you want,
|
|
and to convert from one to another.
