BASE62
------

[](#base62)

Base is a small package that encodes integer to a string and decodes the same string back to an integer, this is can useful in making URL shortening application or generating unique URL slug. It convert the **int** id to base 62 characters with the encode method and converts it back to an integer with the decode public method.

- It converts non-negative integer number like *42000000* up to *PHP\_INT\_SIZE* of the platform in which the package is being use on into a string like *2Qe7m*. The action is reversible.
- It can also decode the id back from *2Qe7m* to *42000000*.
- This is useful in youtube like url or simply using them making url shortening website.
