var new_number = new Array(); | |
// If the number is just 0, then we just save some time and output a zero | |

// D'Ni is base-25, so we divide by 25 over and over again, depositing the remainders into the new number, | |
// until the number is finally less than 25 (meaning dividing it by 25 floors to 0 | |
