This is Ternary numeral system
0oo0o0o8o800o8o00oo80o08000o8o00000o0o0800oo8000oo00oo0
0o8o800o8o0o08000oooo0o0800o800000000o8000o880o8o800oo0

I challenge you to write "SAGE" in this numeral system.

This is a ternary numeral system.

Number systems are difficult mathematics, /prog/ I'm not too sure even an EXPART PROGRAMMER could do this.

I don't understand what this means.

Ternary numeral systems are overly weak and complicated and were conceived in a time when computation was not yet mainstream or accessible.

Binary numeral systems like 0 and 1 are a much better attempt at trying to solve the problems EXPERT PROGRAMMERS first set out to solve.

You all failed miserably, except for >> 3, who only failed mildly.  The correct answer is 0ooo8o80o8o8088o808o

In fact you are wrong, if my memory serves me faithfully no one other than Knuth has proven that in terms of circuit complexity the best system should be base e, and ternary is slightly closer to that than binary.
