Pregunta

Tengo un método Old (ish) C# que escribí que toma un número y lo convierte en cualquier base:

string ConvertToBase(int number, char[] baseChars);

No es tan súper rápido y ordenado. ¿Hay una forma buena y conocida de lograr esto en .NET?

Estoy buscando algo que me permita usar ningún Base con una cadena arbitraria de caracteres para usar.

Esto solo permite bases 16, 10, 8 y 2:

Convert.ToString(1, x);

Quiero usar esto para lograr una base masivamente alta que aproveche los números, todos los minúsculas y todas las letras de mayúsculas. Como en este hilo, pero para C# no JavaScript.

¿Alguien sabe de una forma buena y eficiente de hacer esto en C#?

¿Fue útil?

Solución

Convert.ToString se puede usar para convertir un número en su representación de cadena equivalente en una base especificada.

Ejemplo:

string binary = Convert.ToString(5, 2); // convert 5 to its binary representation
Console.WriteLine(binary);              // prints 101

Sin embargo, como señaló los comentarios, Convert.ToString Solo admite el siguiente conjunto de bases limitado, pero típicamente suficiente: 2, 8, 10 o 16.

Actualización (para cumplir con el requisito de convertir a cualquier base):

No conozco ningún método en el BCL que sea capaz de convertir números en cualquier base para que tenga que escribir su propia función de utilidad pequeña. Una muestra simple se vería así (tenga en cuenta que esto seguramente se puede hacer más rápido reemplazando la concatenación de la cadena):

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        // convert to binary
        string binary = IntToString(42, new char[] { '0', '1' });

        // convert to hexadecimal
        string hex = IntToString(42, 
            new char[] { '0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9',
                         'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F'});

        // convert to hexavigesimal (base 26, A-Z)
        string hexavigesimal = IntToString(42, 
            Enumerable.Range('A', 26).Select(x => (char)x).ToArray());

        // convert to sexagesimal
        string xx = IntToString(42, 
            new char[] { '0','1','2','3','4','5','6','7','8','9',
            'A','B','C','D','E','F','G','H','I','J','K','L','M','N','O','P','Q','R','S','T','U','V','W','X','Y','Z',
            'a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x'});
    }

    public static string IntToString(int value, char[] baseChars)
    {
        string result = string.Empty;
        int targetBase = baseChars.Length;

        do
        {
            result = baseChars[value % targetBase] + result;
            value = value / targetBase;
        } 
        while (value > 0);

        return result;
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// An optimized method using an array as buffer instead of 
    /// string concatenation. This is faster for return values having 
    /// a length > 1.
    /// </summary>
    public static string IntToStringFast(int value, char[] baseChars)
    {
        // 32 is the worst cast buffer size for base 2 and int.MaxValue
        int i = 32;
        char[] buffer = new char[i];
        int targetBase= baseChars.Length;

        do
        {
            buffer[--i] = baseChars[value % targetBase];
            value = value / targetBase;
        }
        while (value > 0);

        char[] result = new char[32 - i];
        Array.Copy(buffer, i, result, 0, 32 - i);

        return new string(result);
    }
}

Actualización 2 (mejora del rendimiento)

El uso de un búfer de matriz en lugar de la concatenación de cadena para construir la cadena de resultados proporciona una mejora del rendimiento, especialmente en un número grande (ver método IntToStringFast). En el mejor de los casos (es decir, la entrada más larga posible) este método es aproximadamente tres veces más rápido. Sin embargo, para números de 1 dígito (es decir, 1 dígito en la base objetivo), IntToString será más rápido.

Otros consejos

Recientemente escribí en un blog sobre esto. Mi implementación no utiliza ninguna operación de cadena durante los cálculos, lo que lo hace muy rapido. Se admite la conversión a cualquier sistema numérico con base de 2 a 36:

/// <summary>
/// Converts the given decimal number to the numeral system with the
/// specified radix (in the range [2, 36]).
/// </summary>
/// <param name="decimalNumber">The number to convert.</param>
/// <param name="radix">The radix of the destination numeral system (in the range [2, 36]).</param>
/// <returns></returns>
public static string DecimalToArbitrarySystem(long decimalNumber, int radix)
{
    const int BitsInLong = 64;
    const string Digits = "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";

    if (radix < 2 || radix > Digits.Length)
        throw new ArgumentException("The radix must be >= 2 and <= " + Digits.Length.ToString());

    if (decimalNumber == 0)
        return "0";

    int index = BitsInLong - 1;
    long currentNumber = Math.Abs(decimalNumber);
    char[] charArray = new char[BitsInLong];

    while (currentNumber != 0)
    {
        int remainder = (int)(currentNumber % radix);
        charArray[index--] = Digits[remainder];
        currentNumber = currentNumber / radix;
    }

    string result = new String(charArray, index + 1, BitsInLong - index - 1);
    if (decimalNumber < 0)
    {
        result = "-" + result;
    }

    return result;
}

También he implementado una función inversa rápida en caso de que alguien la necesite también:Sistema arbitrario de numeral decimal.

RÁPIDO "DE" Y "A" MÉTODOS

Llego tarde a la fiesta, pero agravé las respuestas anteriores y mejoré sobre ellas. Creo que estos dos métodos son más rápidos que cualquier otro publicado hasta ahora. Pude convertir 1,000,000 de números de y basar 36 en menos de 400 ms en una sola máquina de núcleo.

El ejemplo a continuación es para base 62. Cambiar el BaseChars matriz para convertir de y a cualquier otra base.

private static readonly char[] BaseChars = 
         "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz".ToCharArray();
private static readonly Dictionary<char, int> CharValues = BaseChars
           .Select((c,i)=>new {Char=c, Index=i})
           .ToDictionary(c=>c.Char,c=>c.Index);

public static string LongToBase(long value)
{
   long targetBase = BaseChars.Length;
   // Determine exact number of characters to use.
   char[] buffer = new char[Math.Max( 
              (int) Math.Ceiling(Math.Log(value + 1, targetBase)), 1)];

   var i = buffer.Length;
   do
   {
       buffer[--i] = BaseChars[value % targetBase];
       value = value / targetBase;
   }
   while (value > 0);

   return new string(buffer, i, buffer.Length - i);
}

public static long BaseToLong(string number) 
{ 
    char[] chrs = number.ToCharArray(); 
    int m = chrs.Length - 1; 
    int n = BaseChars.Length, x;
    long result = 0; 
    for (int i = 0; i < chrs.Length; i++)
    {
        x = CharValues[ chrs[i] ];
        result += x * (long)Math.Pow(n, m--);
    }
    return result;  
}

Se corrigió para abordar el caso de la esquina encontrado por @adrianbotor (ver comentarios) Convertir 46655 a la base 36. Esto es causado por un pequeño error de punto flotante calculando Math.Log(46656, 36) que es exactamente 3, pero .net regresa 3 + 4.44e-16, que causa un carácter adicional en el búfer de salida.

También se puede usar la versión ligeramente modificada del aceptado y ajustar la cadena de caracteres base a sus necesidades:

public static string Int32ToString(int value, int toBase)
{
    string result = string.Empty;
    do
    {
        result = "0123456789ABCDEF"[value % toBase] + result;
        value /= toBase;
    }
    while (value > 0);

    return result;
}

Muy tarde a la fiesta en este caso, pero recientemente escribí la siguiente clase de ayuda para un proyecto en el trabajo. Fue diseñado para convertir cadenas cortas en números y de regreso (un simplista hash perfecto función), sin embargo, también realizará la conversión de números entre bases arbitrarias. los Base10ToString La implementación del método responde a la pregunta que se publicó originalmente.

los shouldSupportRoundTripping La bandera pasada al constructor de clase es necesaria para evitar la pérdida de dígitos principales de la cadena numérica durante la conversión a la base-10 y de regreso (¡crucial, dados mis requisitos!). La mayoría de las veces, la pérdida de 0 de liderazgo de la cadena numérica probablemente no será un problema.

De todos modos, aquí está el código:

Esto también se puede subclasificar para obtener convertidores de números personalizados:

namespace StackOverflow

        {
        }
    }
}

Y el código se usaría así:

using System.Diagnostics;

namespace StackOverflow
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            {
                var converter = new Base10Converter(
                    digits: "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz",
                    shouldSupportRoundTripping: true
                    );

                long number = converter.StringToBase10("Atoz");
                string text = converter.Base10ToString(number);
                Debug.Assert(text == "Atoz");
            }

            {
                var converter = new HexNumberConverter();

                string text = converter.Base10ToString(255);
                long number = converter.StringToBase10(text);
                Debug.Assert(number == 255);
            }
        }
    }
}

Totalmente no probado ... ¡Avísame si funciona! (Copiar lo pasó en caso de que la publicación del foro desaparezca o algo ...)

I too was looking for a fast way to convert decimal number to another base in the range of [2..36] so I developed the following code. Its simple to follow and uses a Stringbuilder object as a proxy for a character buffer that we can index character by character. The code appears to be very fast compared to alternatives and a lot faster than initialising individual characters in a character array.

For your own use you might prefer to: 1/ Return a blank string rather than throw an exception. 2/ remove the radix check to make the method run even faster 3/ Initialise the Stringbuilder object with 32 '0's and remove the the line result.Remove( 0, i );. This will cause the string to be returned with leading zeros and further increase the speed. 4/ Make the Stringbuilder object a static field within the class so no matter how many times the DecimalToBase method is called the Stringbuilder object is only initialised the once. If you do this change 3 above would no longer work.

I hope someone finds this useful :)

I was using this to store a Guid as a shorter string (but was limited to use 106 characters). If anyone is interested here is my code for decoding the string back to numeric value (in this case I used 2 ulongs for the Guid value, rather than coding an Int128 (since I'm in 3.5 not 4.0). For clarity CODE is a string const with 106 unique chars. ConvertLongsToBytes is pretty unexciting.

private static Guid B106ToGuid(string pStr)
    {
        try
        {
            ulong tMutl = 1, tL1 = 0, tL2 = 0, targetBase = (ulong)CODE.Length;
            for (int i = 0; i < pStr.Length / 2; i++)
            {
                tL1 += (ulong)CODE.IndexOf(pStr[i]) * tMutl;
                tL2 += (ulong)CODE.IndexOf(pStr[pStr.Length / 2 + i]) * tMutl;
                tMutl *= targetBase;
            }
            return new Guid(ConvertLongsToBytes(tL1, tL2));
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            throw new Exception("B106ToGuid failed to convert string to Guid", ex);
        }
    }

I had a similar need, except I needed to do math on the "numbers" as well. I took some of the suggestions here and created a class that will do all this fun stuff. It allows for any unicode character to be used to represent a number and it works with decimals too.

This class is pretty easy to use. Just create a number as a type of New BaseNumber, set a few properties, and your off. The routines take care of switching between base 10 and base x automatically and the value you set is preserved in the base you set it in, so no accuracy is lost (until conversion that is, but even then precision loss should be very minimal since this routine uses Double and Long where ever possible).

I can't command on the speed of this routine. It is probably quite slow, so I'm not sure if it will suit the needs of the one who asked the question, but it certain is flexible, so hopefully someone else can use this.

For anyone else that may need this code for calculating the next column in Excel, I will include the looping code I used that leverages this class.

And now for the code to loop through Excel columns:

    Public Function GetColumnList(DataSheetID As String) As List(Of String)
        Dim workingColumn As New BaseNumber("A")
        workingColumn.SetCharacterArray("@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ")

        Dim listOfPopulatedColumns As New List(Of String)
        Dim countOfEmptyColumns As Integer

        Dim colHasData As Boolean
        Dim cellHasData As Boolean

        Do
            colHasData = True
            cellHasData = False
            For r As Integer = 1 To GetMaxRow(DataSheetID)
                cellHasData = cellHasData Or XLGetCellValue(DataSheetID, workingColumn.GetBaseXNumber & r) <> ""
            Next
            colHasData = colHasData And cellHasData

            'keep trying until we get 4 empty columns in a row
            If colHasData Then
                listOfPopulatedColumns.Add(workingColumn.GetBaseXNumber)
                countOfEmptyColumns = 0
            Else
                countOfEmptyColumns += 1
            End If

            'we are already starting with column A, so increment after we check column A
            Do
                workingColumn.SetNumber(workingColumn.GetBase10Number + 1)
            Loop Until Not workingColumn.GetBaseXNumber.Contains("@")

        Loop Until countOfEmptyColumns > 3

        Return listOfPopulatedColumns

    End Function

You'll note the important part of the Excel part is that 0 is identified by a @ in the re-based number. So I just filter out all the numbers that have an @ in them and I get the proper sequence (A, B, C, ..., Z, AA, AB, AC, ...).
