Question

I need a recursive program that converts a base 10 number to another base any base between 2 and 36. this is what I have so far

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Lab7
{

public void Conversion(int base, int cBase)
{

String result;
int S = 0;
result="";
if (base<cBase)
result = result + base;
else
Conversion(base/cBase,cBase);
result = result+(base%cBase);


}

public static void main(String[]args)
{
int base;
int cBase;


Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter a base 10 ");
base = input.nextInt();
System.out.println("Enter which base you want to convert to: 2 through 36 ");
cBase = input.nextInt();



}


}

Explanation / Answer

import java.util.*;
public class BaseConversion {

    public static String[] numberStrings = new String [] {
        "0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H",
        "I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z"
    };
   
    public static String conversion(int number, int base) {
        if (number == 0) {
            return "";
        }
       
        return conversion(number/base, base) + numberStrings[number % base];
               
    }
   
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int number;
        int cBase;


        Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.println("Enter a number in base 10 ");
        number = input.nextInt();
        input.nextLine();
        System.out.println("Enter which base you want to convert to: 2 through 36 ");
        cBase = input.nextInt();
        input.nextLine();
        System.out.println("The base "+cBase+" representation of "+number+ " is "+
                conversion(number,cBase));
    }

}
