Hello - I wonder if anyone can help.

I want to convert the square root of 2 into base 12 from decimal, to about 1000 digits. I've had a go at this with Maple using convert/base but this will only let me convert integers. Is there a way to display sqrt(2) in base 12, either by calculating sqrt(2) and then converting, or calculating and converting all in one go?

Thanks for any suggestions
