Octal, Decimal, or Hexadecimal?

Question

Given an input string containing only letters and numbers, write a program or function that prints the possible printable ASCII characters (Hex 20-7E) that correspond with the string's value in bases 8, 10, and 16 (where possible). The characters must be written in increasing order in terms of the bases with which they correspond (base 8 first, etc). The output can be in array format (like [& . F]) or separated by spaces or newlines (a trailing newline is optional) like the samples.

If there is not a possible printable ASCII character that can be formed, the program must not have any output.

Samples

31
==> 1

47
==> ' / G

69
==> E i

7A
==> z

100
==> @ d

156
==> n

189
==> <empty>

potaTO
==> <empty>

5G
==> <empty>

19
==> <empty>

Bash + GNU utilities + ascii, 36

Not sure if the use of the ascii utility is allowed. Input is taken as a commandline parameter.

ascii $1|tac|grep -Po '(?<=s as `).'

ascii may be installed on Ubuntu with sudo apt-get install ascii.

Lua, 147 Bytes

I don't think I can golf it down a lot more, I've tested a lot of ways to do it, and here come the shortest. Even using an old compiler which contains the deprecated function table.foreach(table,function) doesn't shave off some bytes.

This program takes a string as argument, and print the concatenation of a table values separated by spaces.

t={}for _,i in pairs({8,10,16})do x=tonumber(arg[1],i)x=x and x or 0 t[#t+1]=127>x and 19<x and string.char(x)or nil end print(table.concat(t," "))

Ungolfed and explanations

t={}                        -- Initalise the array containing the chars to print
for _,i in pairs({8,10,16}) -- Iterate over the array {8,10,16}
do
  x=tonumber(arg[1],i)      -- convert the input in base i to a number in base 10
  x=x and x or 0            -- if the input wasn't a number, x is nil
                            -- use a ternary operator to set x in this case
  t[#t+1]=127>x and 19<x    -- if x is the bytecode of a printable character
    and string.char(x)or nil-- insert this character into t
end
print(table.concat(t," "))  -- concatenate the values in t with " " as separator
                            -- and print it

If you're wandering why there's a variable set but not used in a golfed code (the variable _ in the for loop), here's why:

You have 2 ways to iterate over an array in Lua, either in a for style:

for i=1,#table do --[[code here, use table[i] ]] end

or in a foreach style:

for key,value do pairs(table) do --[[code here]] end

I was needing the values contained in the table {8,10,16} as they are the different bases I have to iterate over. But functions with multiple return won't allow you to chose which one you actually want to be returned, they follow an order. To have the variable value set, I need to catch the value of key too: that's what we call a dummy _.

n=>[..."0x+"].map(t=>String.fromCharCode(eval(`0${t+n}`))).filter(k=>~k.search(/[ -~]/))

Returns an array. If that's not okay, this works for an extra 8 bytes, displaying the possible matches.

n=>[..."0x+"].map(t=>String.fromCharCode(eval(`0${t+n}`))).filter(k=>~k.search(/[ -~]/)).join` `

F=n=>[..."0x+"].map(t=>String.fromCharCode(eval(`0${t+n}`))).filter(k=>~k.search(/[ -~]/)).join` `

R, 84 bytes

function(x){s=sapply;y=s(c(8,10,16),strtoi,x=x);cat(s(y[y%in%c(32:126)],intToUtf8))}

uses strtoi to convert to each of the bases and then convert to character if in the appropriate range. Could save 4 more bytes by removing cat if we allowed the default printing of characters (wrapped in "")
