"YOUR PAGE: IMPLEMENTATION OF BASE CONVERSION"
 
   Hello People:

On this page your author is trying to explain how to convert Binary system to Decimal system & claims that simple substituion of the values of decimal numbers, in Binary system, will do the trick. And he/she gives an example of a decimal number(2065) & substitutes their values in Binary form & gets: 1000011010 & claims that this is the value of 2065 in Binary form!!. This Binary representation comes to: 1077 in Decimal form!!. The actual value of 2065 in Binary form is:1000 0001 0001. Please have it corrected. Thanks.

   He or she make no such claim. The closest to what you allege comes in a remark about conversion from base 8 to base 2. Base 10 needs other means.
