::Yeah but you can say the same thing about what's on this page, that converting from integers to special bases are special cases of [[Number base conversion]] too.

How about going the other direction? Converting an octal or hexadecimal string into an integer? Can we add that to the task or start another task for it? --128.97.244.41 22:20, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
