Championship standings after the race

gollark: You can write an integer n as xa + r for some x, a and r.
gollark: Have you ever done "long division"?
gollark: This is technically also just extracting the digits from it in base 2, I suppose.
gollark: You could do x % 2 == 0 to check for evenness, say.
gollark: It doesn't extract digits, it divides and gets the remainder.
