It's like using these two programs:

998

→OCT

Code:

00 { 36-Byte Prgm }             00 { 35-Byte Prgm }  
01>LBL "->DEC"                  01>LBL "->OCT"       
02 STO 00                       02 STO 00            
03 -2                           03 2                 
04 X<>Y                         04 X<>Y              
05>LBL 00                       05>LBL 00            
06 8                            06 10                
07 X<>Y                         07 X<>Y              
08 10                           08 8                 
09 ÷                            09 ÷
