Base 42 to Base 43

Base 42

In base 42, each digit position represents a power of 42: the rightmost digit counts individual ones, the next counts groups of 42, the next counts groups of 42×42, and so on — the same place-value idea as base 10, just with 42 distinct digits instead of ten.

Base 43

Base 43 works the same way: the rightmost digit counts ones, the next counts groups of 43, the next counts groups of 43×43, and so on, using 43 distinct digits.
