Sure.... But there is inherent semantic ambiguity even by following your statement. But at any rate let's move on. I thnk everyone's thoughts are clear.

Sure it is an argument of semantics, phrasing, word choice, etc.

I'm not saying that it is a huge deal, but regardless I do have a valid point, which people seem to not be able to grasp.

But...

Dug this hole? Hmm..

Did I ever say that he didn't know anything? I just said his wording was ambiguous.

Indeed you could use any base you wanted to represent the location.

But did you anywhere in the question ask explicitly for a certain number base? No.

Therefore you are not accurately...

Like I said Zacs7 example doesn't apply. Look at my example if you want to see one that accurately depicts the situation.

Also, if he is using multiple bases you could assume that, or you could...

That's not even CLOSE to the same thing.

A more accurate example is me saying.

"Give me the binary representation of 5".

And you responding with.

"0x5"

Wow.... Neither of you is getting my point.

Also stop questioning whether I understand number bases, it's quite annoying.

I am simply saying that it is ambiguous to request information in one...

Did I ever say that a value can't be represented in an infinite number of bases and you would always get the same value? No.

Please point out a place where it appears I don't know what I am...

Dude, you are not getting my point at all. Did I ever say that the value would be different when you change bases? No.

I simply said that his wording was not explicit.

And I never said I had a...

So you are arguing that his post isn't misleading?

And this isn't the first time that I've seen people misuse, words when describing number bases. I am simply pointing it out.

His statement...

No I don't have trouble. I was simply saying that his post misleading.

And there is obviously a difference, one is base 16 and the other is base 2...

Your post is misleading.

You are talking about the hexadecimal representations.
