How to convert a number to any base in Python

Answer 1

def to_base(n, base):
    digits = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"
    if n == 0:
        return "0"
    result = ""
    while n > 0:
        n, remainder = divmod(n, base)
        result = digits[remainder] + result
    
    return result


print(to_base(25, 2))   # binary → 11001
print(to_base(25, 8))   # octal → 31
print(to_base(25, 16))  # hex → 19
print(to_base(255, 36)) # base‑36 → 73
