[incorrect algorithm deleted]

Ignoring the question of what the correct algorithm is, why would you
want to implement this (specific to binary) algorithm, when Text_IO
already provides this capability for any base from 2 to 16? It's much
easier and more flexible to use Text_IO.Integer_IO.Put and extract the
part of the result between the '#'s.
