We have a new entry, "Positional Notation for Natural Numbers in an Arbitrary Base”, by a new contributor, Charles Staats.
We demonstrate the existence and uniqueness of the base-n representation of a natural number, where n is any natural number greater than 1. This comes up when trying to translate mathematical contest problems and solutions into Isabelle/HOL.,
It’s on-line here: https://www.isa-afp.org/entries/DigitsInBase.html
