{{task|Basic language learning}} [[Category:Simple]]

Some programming languages have ways of expressing integer literals in bases other than the normal base ten.

;Task: Show how integer literals can be expressed in as many bases as your language allows.

Note: this should '''not''' involve the calling of any functions/methods, but should be interpreted by the compiler or interpreter as an integer written to a given base.

Also show any other ways of expressing literals, e.g. for different types of integers.

AArch64 Assembly

Supported integer literals may differ across assemblers.

GNU assembler supports decimal, binary (prefix 0b), octal (prefix 0), hexadecimal (prefix 0x), and ASCII value of a given character (a single quote followed by an ASCII character, no closing quote).

## Ada

In [[Ada]] integer literals may have the form <base>#<numeral>#.
Here <base> can be from the range 2..16.
For example:

```ada
with Ada.Integer_Text_IO;  use Ada.Integer_Text_IO;

procedure Test_Literals is
begin
   Put (16#2D7#);
   Put (10#727#);
   Put (8#1_327#);
   Put (2#10_1101_0111#);
end Test_Literals;

ALGOL W

## AWK

Awk has decimal literals, using the digits from <tt>0</tt> to <tt>9</tt>. [[Literals/Floating point#AWK]] describes the format of these literals.

As an extension to the language, some Awk implementations also have octal or hexadecimal literals. GNU awk ([[gawk]]) has both octal and hexadecimal literals, like C. The One True Awk ([[nawk]]) only has decimal literals.

{{works with|gawk|3.1.7}}

```awk
BEGIN {
    if ( (0x2d7 == 727) &&
         (01327 == 727) ) {
        print "true with GNU awk"
    }
}

nawk parses 01327 as 1327, and parses 0x2d7 as 0 x2d7 (which is the string concatentation of "0" and variable x2d7).

BEGIN {
    x2d7 = "Goodbye, world!"
    print 0x2d7  # gawk prints "727", nawk prints "0Goodbye, world!"
    print 01327  # gawk prints "727", nawk prints "1327"
}

Axe

In addition to decimal integer literals, Axe supports hexadecimal and binary integers using a leading exponent operator or pi, respectively. Note that the leading E below is the small-caps E.

## bc

Numeric literals use the digits 0-9 and A-F (only the uppercase letters). The minus sign '-' and radix point '.' are optional. When the program encounters a numeric literal, it uses the current value of <tt>ibase</tt>.

This example shows the literal -727 in all bases from 2 to 16. (It never prints "Impossible!")


```bc
ibase = 2
b[10] = -1011010111
ibase = 11 /* 3 */
b[10] = -222221
ibase = 11 /* 4 */
b[10] = -23113
ibase = 11 /* 5 */
b[10] = -10402
ibase = 11 /* 6 */
b[10] = -3211
ibase = 11 /* 7 */
b[10] = -2056
ibase = 11 /* 8 */
b[10] = -1327
ibase = 11 /* 9 */
b[10] = -887
ibase = 11 /* 10 */
b[10] = -727
ibase = 11 /* 11 */
b[10] = -601
ibase = 11 /* 12 */
b[10] = -507
ibase = 11 /* 13 */
b[10] = -43C
ibase = 11 /* 14 */
b[10] = -39D
ibase = 11 /* 15 */
b[10] = -337
ibase = 11 /* 16 */
b[10] = -2D7

ibase = A
for (i = 2; i <= 16; i++) if (b[i] != -727) "Impossible!
"
quit

The digits 0-9 and A-F are valid with all input bases. For example, FF from base 2 is 45 (because 15 * 2 + 15 is 45), and FF from base 10 is 165 (because 15 * 10 + 15 is 45). Most importantly, ibase = A always switches to base ten.

Befunge

While Befunge doesn't directly support numbers aside from 0-9 (base 10), characters in strings are essentially treated as base-256 numbers.

" ~"..@

Output: 126 32

Bracmat

Bracmat only supports specification of numbers in base ten.

C

Leading 0 means octal, 0x or 0X means hexadecimal. Otherwise, it is just decimal.

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
  printf("%s\n",
         ( (727 == 0x2d7) &&
           (727 == 01327)    ) ? "true" : "false");

  return 0;
}

GCC supports specifying integers in binary using the [http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Binary-constants.html 0b prefix] syntax, but it's not standard. Standard C has no way of specifying integers in binary.

To specify a literal of an unsigned integer, you add the suffix "u" or "U". To specify a literal of a "long" integer, you add the suffix "l" or "L". In C99, to specify a literal of a "long long" integer, you add the suffix "ll" or "LL". (The "l" and "ll" forms are discouraged as "l" looks like the digit "1"). The "u" suffixes can be combined with "l" or "ll" suffixes for unsigned long or unsigned long long integers.

C#

C# has decimal and hexadecimal integer literals, the latter of which are prefixed with 0x:

int a = 42;
int b = 0x2a;

Literals of either form can be suffixed with U and/or L. U will cause the literal to be interpreted as an unsigned type (necessary for numbers exceeding 231 or hex literals that have a first digit larger than 7) and L signifies the use of a long type – using UL or LU as suffix will then use ulong. C# has no syntactic notion of expressing integer literals of smaller types than Int32; it is a compile-time error to have an assignment such as


'''Update'''<br/>
As of C#7, integer literals can be written in binary with the prefix <code>0b</code>. Furthermore, underscores can be used as separators:

```c#

int x = 0b1100_1001_1111_0000;

C++

The same comments apply as to the [[#C|C example]].

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
  std::cout << ( (727 == 0x2d7) &&
                 (727 == 01327)     ? "true" : "false")
            << std::endl;

  return 0;
}

Clojure

Clojure uses the Java octal (0...) and hexadecimal (0x...) notation; for any other base, nR... is used, 2 <= n <= 36.

COBOL

Standard COBOL accepts signed base 10 integer literals, but does allow for BOOLEAN and Hexadecimal alphanumeric literals, that can be treated as numeric values in code.

ACUCOBOL added extensions that allow base-2 (B#), base-8 (O#), base-16 (with both H# and X# prefix) integer literals.

With GnuCOBOL these extensions are allowed by configuration


prompt$ cobc -x -cb_conf=acucobol-literals:ok


display B#10 ", " O#01234567 ", " -0123456789 ", "
        H#0123456789ABCDEF ", " X#0123456789ABCDEF ", " 1;2;3;4

2, 342391, 0123456789, 81985529216486895, 81985529216486895, 1234

Some characters are removed by the COBOL text manipulation facility, and are allowed in numeric literals. These symbols are stripped out, along with comment lines, before seen by the compiler proper.


if 1234 = 1,2,3,4 then display "Decimal point is not comma" end-if
if 1234 = 1;2;3;4 then display "literals are equal, semi-colons ignored" end-if

Comma is a special case, as COBOL can be compiled with DECIMAL POINT IS COMMA in the CONFIGURATION SECTION. The 1,2,3,4 comparison test above would cause a compile time syntax error when DECIMAL POINT IS COMMA is in effect.

D

D besides hexadecimal, has also binary base. Additionally you can use '''_''' to separate digits in integer (and FP) literals. Octal number literals are library-based to avoid bugs caused by the leading zero.

Eiffel

Integer literals can be specified in decimal, hexadecimal, octal and binary. Only decimal literals can have an optional sign. Underscores may also be used as separators, but cannot begin or end the literal. Literals are case insensitive.

-1_2_3		-- decimal
0x7b		-- hexadecimal
0c173		-- octal

Literals are by default interpreted as type INTEGER, where INTEGER is a synonym for either INTEGER_32 or INTEGER_64 (depending on the compiler option) but can be explicitly converted to another type.

Base prefixes

Binary numbers begin with 0b, octal numbers with 0o, and hexadecimal numbers with 0x. The hexadecimal digits A-F may be in any case.

0b101 // = 5
0o12  // = 10
0xF   // = 16

Type suffixes

Most type suffixes can be preceded with a 'u', which indicates the type is unisgned.

10y  // 8-bit
'g'B // Character literals can be turned into unsigned 8-bit literals
10s  // 16-bit

Forth

The standard method for entering numbers of a particular base is to set the user variable BASE to the desired radix from 2 to 36. There are also convenience words for setting the base to DECIMAL and HEX.

HEX
FEEDFACE
2 BASE !
1011001
DECIMAL
1234
: mask  var @ [ base @ hex ] 3fff and [ base ! ] var ! ;

The Forth numeric parser will look for symbols embedded within the stream of digits to determine whether to interpret it as a single cell, double cell, or floating point literal ('e').

1234   ( n )
123.4  ( l h )
123e4  ( F: n )

Base prefixes

{{works with|GNU Forth}} In addition, many Forths have extensions for using a prefix to temporarily override BASE when entering an integer literal. These are the prefixes supported by GNU Forth.

$feedface   \ hexadecimal
&1234       \ decimal
%1001101    \ binary
'a          \ base 256  (ASCII literal)

Some Forths also support "0xABCD" hex literals for compatibility with C-like languages.

Go

For integer literals, leading 0 means octal, 0x or 0X means hexadecimal. Otherwise, it is just decimal. There is no binary.

Character literals though, also specify integer values. Go source is specified to be UTF-8 encoded. The value of a character literal is the Unicode value of the UTF-8 encoded character.

There is no size or type specification with an integer literal, they are of arbitrary precision and do not overflow (compilers are required to represent integer constants with at least 256 bits and give an error if unable to represent an integer constant precisely). Constant expressions are evaluated at compile time at an arbitrary precision. It is only when a constant is assigned to a variable that it is given a type and an error produced if the constant value cannot be represented as a value of the respective type.

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    fmt.Println(727 == 0x2d7) // prints true
    fmt.Println(727 == 01327) // prints true
    fmt.Println(727 == '˗')   // prints true
}

J

J's numeric [http://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/dcons.htm mini-language] allows spaces, underlines, dots and lower case alphabetic characters in its numeric literals.

Arbitrary base numbers begin with a base ten literal (which represents the base of this number), and then the letter 'b' and then an arbitrary sequence of digits and letters which represents the number in that base. Letters a..z represent digits in the range 10..35. Each numeric item in a numeric constant must have its base specified independently.

   10b123 16b123 8b123 20b123 2b123 1b123 0b123 100b123 99 0 0bsilliness
1
123 291 83 443 11 6 3 10203 99 0 1 28

This may be used to enter hexadecimal or octal or binary numbers. However, note also that J's primitives support a variety of binary operations on numbers represented as sequences of 0s and 1s, like this:




J also supports extended precision integers, if one member of a list ends with an 'x' when they are parsed.  Extended precision literals can not be combined, in the same constant, with arbitrary base literals. (The notation supports no way of indicating that extra precision in an arbitrary base literal should be preserved and the extra complexity to let this attribute bleed from any member of a list to any other member was deemed not worth implementing.)


```j
   123456789123456789123456789 100000000000x
123456789123456789123456789 100000000000

   16b100 10x
|ill-formed number

J also allows integers to be entered using other notations, such as scientific or rational.

   1e2 100r5
100 20

Internally, J freely [http://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/dictg.htm converts] fixed precision integers to floating point numbers when they overflow, and numbers (including integers) of any type may be combined using any operation where they would individually be valid arguments.

Internally, J represents numeric constants in their simplest type, regardless of how they were specified. In other words 9r1, although it is "specified as a rational" is represented as an extended precision integer. Similarly, 2.0, although it is "specified as a floating point value" is represented as an integer, and 1.0 is represented as a boolean.

That said, note that "type" is a property of the array, and not a property of the value. And, code that modifies the structure of an array leaves its type alone. So, if you need an array of a type different than that specified by J's "simplest type for constants" rule, you can extract the constant you need from an array which contains it and has the type you need. For example {.1 2 would give you an integer 1 instead of a boolean 1.

Java

A leading 0 means octal, 0x or 0X means hexadecimal. Otherwise, it is just decimal.

public class IntegerLiterals {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println( 727 == 0x2d7 &&
                            727 == 01327   );
    }
}

You may also specify a long literal by adding an l or L (uppercase is preferred as the lowercase looks like a "1" in some fonts) to the end (ex: long a = 574298540721727L). This is required for numbers that are too large to be expressed as an int.

{{works with|Java|7}} Java 7 has added binary literals to the language. A leading 0b means binary. You may also use underscores as separators in all bases.

public class BinaryLiteral {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println( 727 == 0b10_1101_0111 );
    }
}

JavaScript

     727 == 01327 )
    window.alert("true");

jq

jq only supports JSON data types, and thus the only supported integer literals are decimals, which may, however, be expressed using digits in the conventional way, or using the "e" notation, e.g. 10 == 1e1. Other ways to express 10 include 1e+1, 10e0, 10E-0, etc.

Julia

Julia has binary, octal and hexadecimal literals. We check that they give the same value.

 0b1011010111 == 0o1327 == 0x2d7 == 727
true

Kotlin

Kotlin supports 3 types of integer literal (signed 4 byte), namely : decimal, hexadecimal and binary.

These can be converted to long integer literals (signed 8 byte) by appending the suffix 'L' (lower case 'l' is not allowed as it is easily confused with the digit '1').

It is also possible to assign integer literals to variables of type Short (signed 2 byte) or Byte (signed 1 byte). They will be automatically converted by the compiler provided they are within the range of the variable concerned.

// version 1.0.6

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
    val d = 255                  // decimal integer literal
    val h = 0xff                 // hexadecimal integer literal
    val b = 0b11111111           // binary integer literal

    val ld = 255L                // decimal long integer literal (can't use l instead of L)
    val lh = 0xffL               // hexadecimal long integer literal (could use 0X rather than 0x)
    val lb = 0b11111111L         // binary long integer literal (could use 0B rather than 0b)

    val sd : Short = 127         // decimal integer literal automatically converted to Short
    val sh : Short = 0x7f        // hexadecimal integer literal automatically converted to Short

eval(010)       # base 8
eval(0x10)      # base 16

Output:

10        # base 10
8       # base 8
16      # base 16

As an extension, GNU m4 provides "0b" and "0r" literals.

{{works with|GNU m4}}

eval(0b10)      # base 2
eval(`0r2:10')  # base 2
 ...
eval(`0r36:10') # base 36

Output:

2      # base 2
2  # base 2
 ...
36 # base 36

An integer is either a decimal, binary, octal, hexadecimal, or character-code literal. A decimal literal is any sequence of decimal digits. A binary literal is 0b followed by any sequence of binary digits. An octal literal is 0o followed by any sequence of octal digits. A hexadecimal literal is 0x followed by any sequence of hexadecimal digits. A character-code literal is 0' followed by any single character.

Metafont

num1 := oct"100";
num2 := hex"100";

Metafont numbers can't be greater than 4096, so that the maximum octal and hexadecimal legal values are 7777 and FFF respectively. To be honest, "100" is a string, and oct is an "internal" "''macro''"; but this is the way Metafont specifies numbers in base 8 and 16.

NetRexx

Along with decimal notation NetRexx accepts numeric literals in hexadecimal and binary formats.

The NetRexx documentation describes hexadecimal and binary literal symbol notation in more detail; a summary follows:

A ''hexadecimal numeric symbol'' describes a whole number, and is of the form ''nXstring'' where, ''n'' is a simple number which describes the effective length of the hexadecimal string and ''string'' is a string of one or more hexadecimal characters.

A ''binary numeric symbol'' describes a whole number using the same rules, except that the identifying character is B or b, and the digits of ''string'' must be either 0 or 1, each representing a single bit.

   0b1011010111 = 01327 = 727 = 0x2d7
   {Show success}
catch _ then
   {Show unexpectedError}
end

Negative integers start with "~":

X = ~42

PARI/GP

GP allows input in binary 0b11 and hexadecimal 0xff. PARI of course supports precisely those bases supported by [[#C|C]].

Pascal

See [[Literals/Integer#Delphi | Delphi]]

FreePascal also supports octal (with leading ampersand) and binary (with leading percent sigh) literals:

const
  INT_VALUE = 15;
  OCTAL_VALUE = &017;
  BINARY_VALUE = %1111;

Perl

print "true\n" if ( 727 == 0x2d7 &&
                    727 == 01327 &&
                    727 == 0b1011010111 &&
                    12345 == 12_345   # underscores are ignored; useful for keeping track of places
                  );

Perl 6

These all print 255.

say 255;

say :2<1111_1111>;

say :4<3333>;
say :12<193>;
say :36<73>;

There is a specced form for bases above 36, but rakudo does not yet implement it.

Phix

Phix supports more bases and number formats than average. Standard decimals and hexadecimals are eg 255=#FF. For hexadecimal numbers you can use upper or lower case for digits above 9 (A..F or a..f).

Phix also supports 0b01, 0o07, (0t07,) 0d09, and 0x0F for binary, octal, (octal,) decimal, and hexadecimal values. (The only difference between 0o07 and 0t07 is personal preference.) There is no difference whatsoever between 1 and 1.0.

Given the need for 2, 8, 10, and 16, rather than four routines I wrote one that could handle all of them, and trivially extended it to cope up to base 36. Thus Phix (also) allows any base between 2 and 36, using the notation o()digits, eg o(7)16 is the base 7 representation of the decimal 13 (ie 17^1 + 67^0). Phix does not however support "leading 0 is octal", or "trailing h is hex" or any other trailing qualifiers. There is also a specialist "bytewise octal" that I personally wanted for x86 opcodes/listing files, eg 0ob377377377377==#FFFFFFFF.

An integer literal representing a character code can also be expressed by surrounding the character with single quotes, for example the statement for i='A' to 'Z' is/behaves exactly the same as for i=65 to 90.

Elements (8-bit characters) of an ansi string can likewise be treated as integers. Strings representing a number can/must be converted using eg scanf().

In the 32-bit version, integers outside -1,073,741,824 to +1,073,741,823 must be stored as atoms, which [ie a 64-bit float] can (accurately) store integers up to 9,007,199,254,740,992: between 9,007,199,254,740,992 and 18,014,398,509,481,984 you can only store even numbers, and between 18,014,398,509,481,984 and 36,028,797,018,963,968, you can only store numbers divisible by 4, and so on. (ie as you need more and more bits on the front, eventually bits must start falling off the end)

In the 64-bit version the limits of integers are -4,611,686,018,427,387,904 to +4,611,686,018,427,387,903. Offhand I don't know the exact highest integer an 80-bit float can hold, but the limits should all be 512* the values given above for 32-bit.

The included bigatom library allows working with extremely large integers with arbitrary precision, but obviously will be somewhat slower than using native integers/atoms.

PHP

     727 == 01327 )

PicoLisp

In the strict sense of this task, PicoLisp reads only integers at bases which are a power of ten (scaled fixpoint numbers). This is controlled via the global variable '[http://software-lab.de/doc/refS.html#*Scl *Scl]':

: (setq *Scl 4)
-> 4

: 123.456789
-> 1234568

However, the reader is normally augmented by read macros, which can read any base or any desired format. Read macros are not executed at runtime, but intially when the sources are read.

: '(a `(hex "7F") b `(oct "377") c)
-> (a 127 b 255 c)

In addition to standard formats like '[http://software-lab.de/doc/refH.html#hex hex]' (hexadecimal) and '[http://software-lab.de/doc/refO.html#oct oct]' (octal), there are also more esoteric formats like '[http://software-lab.de/doc/refF.html#fmt64 fmt64]' (base 64) and '[http://software-lab.de/doc/refH.html#hax hax]' (hexadecimal numbers coded with alphabetic characters).

PL/I

PostScript

Integer literals in PostScript can be either standard decimal literals or in the form ''base''#''number''. ''base'' can be any decimal integer between 2 and 36, ''number'' can then use digits from 0 to ''base'' − 1. Digits above 9 are replaced by A through Z and case does not matter.

PowerShell

PowerShell only supports base 10 and 16 directly:

727     # base 10
0x2d7   # base 16

Furthermore there are special suffices which treat the integer as a multiple of a specific power of two, intended to simplify file size operations:

3KB  # 3072
3MB  # 3145728
3GB  # 3221225472
3TB  # 3298534883328

A number can be suffixed with d to make it a decimal. This doesn't work in conjunction with above suffixes, though:

PS> 4d.GetType().ToString()
System.Decimal

PureBasic

PureBasic allows integer literals to be specified in base 10, base 2 by using the prefix '%', or base 16 by using the prefix '$'.

x = 15     ;15 in base 10
x = %1111  ;15 in base 2
x = $f     ;15 in base 16

An integer literal representing a character code can also be expressed by surrounding the character with single quotes. More than one character can be included in the single quotes (i.e. 'abc'). Depending on whether code is compiled in Ascii or Unicode mode this will result in the integer value being specified in base 256 or base 65536 respectively.

{{works with|Python|3.0}} Python 3.0 brought in the binary literal and uses 0o or 0O exclusively for octal.

 # Bin(leading 0b or 0B), Oct(leading 0o or 0O), Dec, Hex(leading 0x or 0X), in order:
>>> 0b1011010111 == 0o1327 == 727 == 0x2d7
True
>>>

{{works with|Python|2.6}} Python 2.6 has the binary and new octal formats of 3.0, as well as keeping the earlier leading 0 octal format of previous 2.X versions for compatability.

 # Bin(leading 0b or 0B), Oct(leading 0o or 0O, or just 0), Dec, Hex(leading 0x or 0X), in order:
>>> 0b1011010111 == 0o1327 == 01327 == 727 == 0x2d7
True
>>>

{{works with|Python|2.5}}

 # Oct(leading 0), Dec, Hex(leading 0x or 0X), in order:
>>> 01327 == 727 == 0x2d7
True
>>>

In Python 2.x you may also specify a long literal by adding an l or L (the latter form is preferred as the former looks like a "1") to the end (ex: 574298540721727L), but this is optional, as integer literals that are too large for an int will be interpreted as a long.

R

0x or 0X followed by digits or the letters a-f denotes a hexadecimal number. The suffix L means that the number should be stored as an integer rather than numeric (floating point).

0x2d7==727            # TRUE
identical(0x2d7, 727) # TRUE
is.numeric(727)       # TRUE
is.integer(727)       # FALSE
is.integer(727L)      # TRUE
is.numeric(0x2d7)     # TRUE
is.integer(0x2d7)     # FALSE
is.integer(0x2d7L)    # TRUE

Scala

Scala has signed integers of 8, 16, 32 and 64 bits. They can be represented in decimal, octal by prefixing 0, or hexadecimal by prefixing 0x or 0X. Without any other type hint, it defaults to 32 bits integers, or an Int. An l or L suffix will indicate a 64 bits integer, or a Long. The other two types, Byte and Short, can be represented using type ascription, as shown below.


scala> 16
res10: Int = 16

scala> 020L
res11: Long = 16

scala> 0x10 : Byte
res12: Byte = 16

## Smalltalk



```smalltalk>2r1011010111 + 5r100 + 8r1327 + 10r727 + 16r2d7 / 4</lang

binary, base-5, octal, decimal, binary, decimal (default). The radix is any between 2 and 32 (although only 2, 8, 10 and 16 are typically needed).

There is no size limit (except memory constraints), the runtime chooses an appropriate representation automatically:

```smalltalk
16r1B30964EC395DC24069528D54BBDA40D16E966EF9A70EB21B5B2943A321CDF10391745570CCA9420C6ECB3B72ED2EE8B02EA2735C61A000000000000000000000000 = 100 factorial

val it = ~727 : int

Stata

Stata does not have an integer type, except for dataset storage, in order to reduce data size in memory or on disk. Computations are done with floating-point doubles, which can hold exact integers in the range -9007199254740992 to 9007199254740992 (that is, -2^53 to 2^53). Only decimal literals are supported.

=={{header|TI-89 BASIC}}==

Binary, decimal, and hexadecimal are supported. The system base mode sets the default output base, but does not affect input; unmarked digits are always decimal.




## UNIX Shell

The <tt>expr</tt> command accepts only decimal literals.


```bash
$ expr 700 - 1
699
$ expr 0700 - 01
699

Some shells have arithmetic expansion. These shells may accept literals in other bases. This syntax only works in places that do arithmetic expansion, such as in $(( )), or in Bash's let command.

Quoting the manual page of [[pdksh]]:

Integer constants may be specified with arbitrary bases using the notation base#number, where base is a decimal integer specifying the base, and number is a number in the specified base. Additionally, integers may be prefixed with 0X' or 0x' (specifying base 16) or `0' (base 8) in all forms of arithmetic expressions, except as numeric arguments to the '''test''' command.

[[pdksh]] allows bases from 2 to 36. The letters a-z or A-Z represent numbers 10 to 35.

[[Bash]] allows the same syntax as pdksh. In addition, Bash can handle bases as high as 64: the symbols used are digits, lowercase letters, uppercase letters, @ and _ in that order; if the BASE is less than or equal to 36, lowercase and uppercase letters can be used interchangeably to represent number from 10 and 35. (From the info manual of the Bash).

{{works with|bash}}

dec=727
oct=$(( 01327 ))
bin=$(( 2#1011010111 ))
hex=$(( 0x2d7 ))
# or e.g.
let bin=2#1011010111
let "baseXX = 20#1g7"

Ursa

Ursa supports signed, base-10 integers.

decl int i
set i 123
set i -456

Ursala

Natural numbers (i.e., unsigned integers) of any size are supported. Only decimal integer literals are recognized by the compiler, as in a declaration such as the following.


Signed integers are also recognized and are considered a separate type from natural numbers, but non-negative integers and natural numbers have compatible binary representations.

```Ursala
z = -35

Signed rational numbers of unlimited precision are yet another primitive type and can be expressed in conventional decimal form.

m = -2/3

The forward slash in a rational literal is part of the syntax and not a division operator. Finally, a signed or unsigned integer with a trailing underscore, like this

t = 4534934521_

is used for numbers stored in binary converted decimal format, also with unlimited precision, which may perform better in applications involving very large decimal numbers.
