I presume that CL standardized on a base as a default, though? Otherwise you have an appropriately recursive problem that every base is "base-10" in that base.

edit: (setf read-base (+ 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1)) :)
- krzysz00 15y agoI just went and checked, and the standard gives a default value of "10." for read-base , so decimal by default (I think). It also says: "Notes: Altering the input radix can be useful when reading data files in special formats. "
