Hey, >if the base value is not a compile-time constant I'd imagine in most situations the value would be a constant. And IMHO it fails more "gracefully" - you end up with a situations where the end result is more code usage. In the other case you end up with a broken function if the user does not realize they need to specify the full version. Imagine if you were using non-standard bases and assumed that the itoa function was working and you're trying to debug your system... Warm Regards, -Colin
