MinBases

Minimum Bases

Problem Description

Find the minimum base (radix) in which a given positive integer can be represented using only the same repeated digit.

Goal

Determine the smallest base where the given number can be written using identical digits (e.g., 111, 222, 333, etc.).

Implementations

• minbases.pl - SWI Prolog implementation
• minbases.sml - SML/NJ implementation
• minbases(IntInf).sml - SML/NJ implementation using arbitrary precision integers
