How many base 36 digits (0..Z) do you have in each number?

[jon_mcbee]

Attached is a very basic conversion from Base 36 to Base 10 that I wrote.  It only takes uppercase letters for Base 36 digits (you can fix this if you need to).  There is no error checking that the Base 36 string makes any sense (you can add this if you want to).  It does not add conversion for decimal, only whole numbers (you can add this if you want to).  This vi is just meant to get you started.  I hope it helps.

Cheers

Here's a quick example:

(Of course you would need to add error checking for unusual characters, for example.)

[altenbach]

Here's a slight improvement that adds support for lowercase letters and check the input for validity (For example if there is an illegal character suchs as @ in the input).

It also eliminates all orange wires and operates fully on integers.

I know you want to roll your own, but if you want to check your work,
http://bitizer.com converts Base36 to binary, hex, decimal, and ASCII to
very high bit depth.

thank you

Here's the explanation:

 

The math behind the value is quite simpe: base^position, where the first position left of the decimal sign is 1.
