 Solution by Ozzy
+
+------------
+Challenge 1:
+------------
+The simplest solution I could think of was conversion of a numeric (integer) string through 
+the use of the built-in Int method:
+
+  my $a = "004"       # Example string representing positive integer with leading zeros
+  my $b = $a.Int      # Convert string to Int using built-in method Int, and so strip zeros
+  say $b              # Print the Int; OUTPUT: 4
+
+In a Perl6/Bash one-liner, this would look something like this:
+
+  perl6 -pe '$_=.Int' <<< 004
+
+but this, in itself, isn't very practical since Bash can do it with even less fuzz:
+
+  a="004"
+  echo ${a##+(0)}
+
+------------
+Challenge 2:
+------------
+The obvious way to go is probably the use of Perl6' .base and .parse-base methods:
+
+loop {
+
+    my Str $a = prompt("\nPlease, give me a decimal (base-10) number : ");
+    say("$a in decimal notation is { $a.Int.base(35) } in base-35 notation.");
+
+    $a = prompt("\nNow give me a base-35 number [A-Y0-9]: ");
+    say("$a in base-35 notation is { $a.parse-base(35) } in base-10 notation.")
+
+}
