What is phi in octal? (Base 8)?
I've tried to search for it online, but all I get are pages about computer programming.
Yes, the golden ratio.
It doesn't have to be very far into the digits.
I wrote a phrase of music based on it; but that has been done already. So I want to see what happens when I write a phrase based on 7 digits (corresponding to the 7 notes)
Thank you.
I can convert whole numbers, but I couldn't remember how to covert decimal fractions to a different base.

If you're only interested in the answer, and not the method, see http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=convert+golde...

First, let's simplify phi to 3 decimal places → 1.618
We need to convert this to base 2 (the link below shows how to convert decimal fractions to binary)
I went to to 12 binary places and got 1.101001000110 base 2
Now you can split the binary numbers in groups of three to figure out the octal representation.
1. 101 001 000 110 base 2 → 1.5106 base 8
Whew. It's been a while since I did THAT! Thanks for the challenge!

I don't know if you've ever seen it but the exact value of phi = (rt5 + 1)/2 (put that into your calculator and you will get the usual decimal approximation). You could, without too much hassle get rt5 in octal form, and use it in this expression.
