GC code to ID code translation

Every geocache listed on geocaching.com has both a waypoint ID (like
GC16XYD for this cache), and a numeric ID (718967 for this cache). The numeric ID isn't used for much, but you can see it by clicking on the "watch listing"
button and looking at the end of the URL that results.
In the early days, waypoint IDs were simply hexadecimal (base 16) equivalents
of the numeric IDs, with "GC" in front. They used the digits 0 to 9 and the letters
A to F, representing the "digits" 10 to 15. For example, to find the numeric
equivalent of the waypoint ID "GCCE49", just throw away the "GC" and interpret
"CE49" in base 16. C=12 and E=14, so the numeric equivalent is:
12 * 16^3 + 14 * 16^2 + 4 * 16 + 9 = 52809
("16^3" means
16*16*16, etc.)
To see that these are really the same, click on these links:
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?wp=GCCE49 http://
www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.aspx?id=52809
Some early GPS units could only handle 6-character waypoint IDs, so this system had to be changed in April 2003, after the cache GCFFFF was created.
Since that time, other letters of the alphabet have also been allowed in waypoint
IDs. Instead of base 16, they now use base 31. To find the numeric equivalent of
a modern waypoint ID, interpret it as a number in base 31, with A=10, B=11, ...,
Z=30, and subtract 411120. For example, this cache's waypoint ID is GC16XYD.
Since X=28, Y=29, and D=13, the numeric equivalent is
1 * 31^4 + 6 * 31^3 + 28 * 31^2 + 29 * 31 + 13 - 411120 = 718967.
