History: BPFK Section: Digits

Source of version: 12 (current)

The base of a number string should be base-ten, unless: * explicitly specified by ju'u, AND/OR * the string contains hexadecimal digits, in which case it is defaults to hexadecimal, AND/OR * overridden by context It should not be necessary to state this in the cmavo definitions here, but rather in the definition for ju'u. I assume that it is unnecessary to formally define the mechanism of big-endian positional notation. At any rate, I am unable to do so myself. !Usage for decimal digits ''cacra li revo .a li pare''%%% It lasts for 24 or 12 hours. ''mi tatpi .i li paci vi tcika''%%% I'm tired. It's 13 o'clock here.
