Base 62 Converter v1.0

Takes a base 10 int or long and compresses it, using a 'base62' notation which is an alphabet of the digits 0-9, the characters a-z and the characters A-Z (and vice versa). Can be used for example to reduce the length of or obfuscate primary key values held in URLs.

Usage:

>>> from Base62NumericConverter import Base62NumericConverter
>>> c = Base62NumericConverter()
>>> c.convert_base10_to_base62(28365423)
'1V18P'
>>> c.convert_base62_to_base10('1V18P')
28365423
>>> c.convert_base62_to_base10('454Fkjuceh287fy2euhf4f8F')
