Ternary Logic and Ternary Computing #18064

Open PeterCullenBurbery opened 2 years ago

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Please include a conversion between binary and different ternary base systems including balanced ternary (-1, 0, and 1) and ternary number system (0,1,2).

Scenario when this would be used?

DevToys.app has a similar feature for base conversion and this would be a good way to discuss radix efficiency and base 3 computers (3 is closer to 2.7182818284590, Euler's number and is the most efficient integer base).

With "include", do you mean in PowerToys Run?

PeterCullenBurbery commented 2 years ago

Yes. Ternary is a very good base.
