Your <> notation seems to imply that 1 = <0,0,0,0,...> is what is intending, and so 4=<2,0,0,...> but that's a different approach.

No, that is indeed what I was using it to mean. I left the "0, ..." off for simplicity...I initially had them, but felt they only cluttered things up. Unstated elements in the vector are assumed to be zero, just as they are in normal place-value notation...you don't write 5 as "...05", for example.
