What are the counting numbers in base 6

In the base 6 number system, we would only use numerals from 0 to 5. The idea of base 6 is just like the normal base 10 system, however instead of using the numerals from 0 to 9, we use numerals from 0 to 5. And instead of having a ones digit, a tens digit, a hundreds digit and so on, we use a ones digit, a sixes digit, a thirty-sixes digit, and so on. Therefore in base 6, the number 321 means 1  one plus 2 sixes plus 3 thirty-sixes, or 121. So to count until 15 for example, we  would need:
