Quoth I:

>         value = 0
>         for digit in digits:
>             value = value*base
>             value = value + ord(digits) - ord('0') + 1  # no "+ 1" normally
>         return value - 1                                # no "- 1" normally

*sigh*

That should be ord(digit), of course, not ord(digits).

One of these days I might learn to post exactly what I've tested.
