In jbovlaste, the user krtisfranks has added a
definition of "su'i'o" in the language "English".

New Data:

	Definition:
		mekso unary or binary operator: ordered inputs $(n, b)$ where $n$ and $b$ are nonnegative integers and $b > 1$; output is the ultimate digital root of $n$ in base-$b$.

	Notes:
		Often denoted "dr". $b$ defaults to whichever base in which $n$ was expressed; output is in base-$b$. Thus, if we assume the cultural default of the traditional decimal system, then$n$ will be expressed in this base and $b$ will be defaulted to $b = 2*5$ and thus omitted (yielding an unary operator here). For a fixed base $b$ and $n = eval("$n_1n_2...n_m$") where "$n_i$" is a digit in base $b$ for each $i$, if $n<b$ then dr($n, b$) = $n$, else dr($n, b$) = dr($n_1 + n_ 2 +...+ n_m, b$). This might be extended to values of $n$ which are not nonnegative integers via various meams such as the piecewise function based on modular arithmetic (although this breaks the intuition that dr(9.9) = 9, for example); it may also be extended to exotic bases.
