public class TinyUrl {
    
        private final String characterMap = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789";
        private final int charBase = characterMap.length();
    
        public String covertToCharacter(int num){
            StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    
            while (num > 0){
                sb.append(characterMap.charAt(num % charBase));
                num /= charBase;
            }
    
            return sb.reverse().toString();
        }
    
        public int covertToInteger(String str){
            int num = 0;
            for(int i = 0 ; i< str.length(); i++)
                num += characterMap.indexOf(str.charAt(i)) * Math.pow(charBase , (str.length() - (i + 1)));
    
            return num;
        }
}
    
class TinyUrlTest{
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        TinyUrl tinyUrl = new TinyUrl();
        int num = 122312215;
        String url = tinyUrl.covertToCharacter(num);
        System.out.println("Tiny url:  " + url);
        System.out.println("Id: " + tinyUrl.covertToInteger(url));
    }
}
