Use the int(x, base) to convert a string in an arbitrary base to an int. Write a similar function to convert an int back into a string of the desired base. Of course, your strings aren't in a standard form, so you'd have to do some work to get those instead. Are you really intending to use a base beyond 36? Then to add two numbers, use + To multiply, use *, and so on. Assuming Python 3.x of course. if you're in Python 2, you'd use "long" rather than int. -- DaveA
