> One might, more succinctly, use ":" as separator, in view of that is already in use in the case of time for hours, minutes and seconds, like in 25:31:37.348 = 25:31:37₆₀.348₁₀ = 1:01₂₄:31:37₆₀.348₁₀ when the base changes to count days and fractions. The example above then becomes:
> 14:314:191₃₆₀
... or even ".", in view of that it is in use in the case of the
Meso-American Long Count Calendar (scientific notation), successfully
employed even with mixed base (like with time data), based on a common
convention. ;-)
