 # Instructions
 
-Convert a number, represented as a sequence of digits in one base, to any other base.
+Convert a sequence of digits in one base, representing a number, into a sequence of digits in another base, representing the same number.
 
-Implement general base conversion.
-Given a number in base **a**, represented as a sequence of digits, convert it to base **b**.
-
-## Note
-
-- Try to implement the conversion yourself.
-  Do not use something else to perform the conversion for you.

 ## About [Positional Notation][positional-notation]
 
 In positional notation, a number in base **b** can be understood as a linear combination of powers of **b**.
 
 The number 42, _in base 10_, means:
 
-`(4 * 10^1) + (2 * 10^0)`
+`(4 × 10¹) + (2 × 10⁰)`
 
 The number 101010, _in base 2_, means:
 
-`(1 * 2^5) + (0 * 2^4) + (1 * 2^3) + (0 * 2^2) + (1 * 2^1) + (0 * 2^0)`
+`(1 × 2⁵) + (0 × 2⁴) + (1 × 2³) + (0 × 2²) + (1 × 2¹) + (0 × 2⁰)`
 
 The number 1120, _in base 3_, means:
 
-`(1 * 3^3) + (1 * 3^2) + (2 * 3^1) + (0 * 3^0)`

-I think you got the idea!

 _Yes. Those three numbers above are exactly the same. Congratulations!_

+# Introduction
+
+You've just been hired as professor of mathematics.
+Your first week went well, but something is off in your second week.
+The problem is that every answer given by your students is wrong!
+Luckily, your math skills have allowed you to identify the problem: the student answers _are_ correct, but they're all in base 2 (binary)!
+Amazingly, it turns out that each week, the students use a different base.
+To help you quickly verify the student answers, you'll be building a tool to translate between bases.

 # Instructions
 
-Add the mine counts to a completed Minesweeper board.
+Your task is to add the mine counts to empty squares in a completed Minesweeper board.
+The board itself is a rectangle composed of squares that are either empty (`' '`) or a mine (`'*'`).
 
-Minesweeper is a popular game where the user has to find the mines using numeric hints that indicate how many mines are directly adjacent (horizontally, vertically, diagonally) to a square.
+For each empty square, count the number of mines adjacent to it (horizontally, vertically, diagonally).
+If the empty square has no adjacent mines, leave it empty.
+Otherwise replace it with the adjacent mines count.
 
-In this exercise you have to create some code that counts the number of mines adjacent to a given empty square and replaces that square with the count.
-
-The board is a rectangle composed of blank space (' ') characters.
-A mine is represented by an asterisk (`*`) character.
-
-If a given space has no adjacent mines at all, leave that square blank.

-## Examples

-For example you may receive a 5 x 4 board like this (empty spaces are represented here with the '·' character for display on screen):

 # Instructions
 
-Given a word, compute the Scrabble score for that word.
+Your task is to compute a word's Scrabble score by summing the values of its letters.
 
-## Letter Values
+The letters are valued as follows:
 
-You'll need these:
+| Letter                       | Value |
+| ---------------------------- | ----- |
+| A, E, I, O, U, L, N, R, S, T | 1     |

+| J, X                         | 8     |
+| Q, Z                         | 10    |

-Q, Z                               10

-## Examples
-
-"cabbage" should be scored as worth 14 points:
+For example, the word "cabbage" is worth 14 points:
 
 - 3 points for C
-- 1 point for A, twice
-- 3 points for B, twice
+- 1 point for A
+- 3 points for B
+- 3 points for B
+- 1 point for A
 - 2 points for G
 - 1 point for E
-
-And to total:
-
-- `3 + 2*1 + 2*3 + 2 + 1`
-- = `3 + 2 + 6 + 3`
-- = `5 + 9`
-- = 14
