BaseFree Numerical System - Part 3

Continuing with multiple digit numbers in BaseFree numerical system. There was "9", then "00", and now comes the next number.

In BaseFree numerical system, the number after "00" may be a bit surprising. Before I reveal, let me give you some background...

In the part of the world where I have been living at, we write from the left to the right; we grow text from the left to the right. But still here, writing numbers is weird, because the numbers grow from the right to the left. So, for BaseFree numerical system, I address this issue, and I made the BaseFree numbers grow from the left to the right too -- same as word writing. So, the unit's place in BaseFree is the number place at the most left, not the number place at the most right. And a BaseFree number's growing direction is to right.

Knowing this, I can already tell what are the numbers after "00". These:

... 00 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 01 11 21 31 41 ...

It may be a bit difficult to get used to this, and that only shows how weirdly conceived the Decimal numerical system (the Fibonacci numbers) has been.
