Is there a common method to encode and decode arbitrary data so the encoded end result consists of numbers only - like base64_encode but without the letters?
Fictitious example:
$encoded = numbers_encode("Mary had a little lamb");
echo $encoded; // outputs e.g. 122384337422394237423 (fictitious result)
$decoded = numbers_decode("122384337422394237423");
echo $decoded; // outputs "Mary had a little lamb"
