95/// Converts a [`Float`] to base-`base` mantissa digits and an exponent, rounding to `digit_len`
96/// digits with the rounding mode `rm`.
97///
98/// The digits are returned as ASCII characters (`0`–`9`, then lowercase `a`–`z`, then uppercase
99/// `A`–`Z`, supporting a `base` of up to 62; a negative `base` in `-36..=-2` uses base `|base|`
100/// with `0`–`9` and uppercase `A`–`Z`), preceded by `-` when `x` is negative. With the returned
101/// exponent $e$, the value represented is $0.d_1 d_2 \ldots \times \mathrm{base}^e$, where $d_1 d_2
102/// \ldots$ are the digits. If `digit_len` is 0, the fewest digits that round-trip back to `x` are
103/// used.
104///
105/// `base` must be in `2..=62` or `-36..=-2`; any other value returns `None`.
106///
107/// The returned [`Ordering`] reports whether the rounded result is less than, equal to, or greater
108/// than the exact value of `x`. The special values NaN, $\infty$, and $-\infty$ produce the strings
109/// `@NaN@`, `@Inf@`, and `-@Inf@`, each with exponent 0 and `Equal`.
110///
111/// # Worst-case complexity
112/// $T(n) = O(n (\log n)^2 \log\log n)$
113///
114/// $M(n) = O(n \log n)$
115///
116/// where $T$ is time, $M$ is additional memory, and $n$ is `max(x.complexity(), digit_len)`.
117///

119/// Panics if `rm` is `Exact` but `x` cannot be represented exactly in `digit_len` base-`base`
120/// digits.
