    The only true base is binary. I’m not even kidding, I still sometimes convert numbers to binary for the sake of simplifying operations if I’m tired. Have you ever tried calculating square roots in binary? It’s shockingly easy compared to decimal.

    Base 1 is the only universal counting system.

    They are using base 1111 and base 1111111111. Instead of digits, you can represent numbers using rocks, if needed.

    My species uses e as its base because that is proven to be mathematically optimal. In our number system, humans use base 2.3025850… (but written entirely as powers of e using our far superior elegant notation, of course!)
