>One of our group members has issued a challenge:  to craft a program that
>converts any base 10 number to its base x equivalent (where x is
>user-specified).  In the spirit of All Things Perl, we'll offer a prize to
>the person who comes up with the most concise correct solution.  (Extra
>bonus points will be awarded if your program will convert a base y number to
>base x.)
>
>Let's give this a realistic deadline...say, one week.  At our next meeting
>we'll review submissions and decide the winner.
>
>Good luck, and see you next week!  (Same time and place as usual - Cafe
>Mimosa at 7:00 pm next Thursday.)
