Think on the modulo or the set of characters that you use for the representation. If you use base 9, it would be 8, for base 6 would be 5 and so on. Or look at

Think on the modulo or the set of characters that you use for the representation. If you use base 9, it would be 8, for base 6 would be 5 and so on. Or look at it as placed into a revolution circle, or exponentials sequence. In quantifying the multiplicity 9 would be the previous value for 1, not 0
