    I can convert binary to any number system and any number system to binary, but how do I make letters (matt gates has it in his signature) would I just use ASCII values?

    What do you mean letter? You type "A" on the keyboard and voila! you made a letter.

    OK, one moment, i'll check Matts signature.

    Oooh those letter! Well number 0 is chr(48) and 1 is chr(49)
    Use

    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13

    No binary...for instance 101 = 9 (i think )

    Yeah, it's the ASCII values of the letters.

    Cool ascii graphics in your signature parksie!

    for any number from 0-9 in binary add 110000 (48 or 0x30) to the binary number to get the ascii character.
    If it wasn't for this sentence I wouldn't have a signature at all.
