hello all, i m new to perl. i need to decode some bits and represent accordingly back in hex.
for example: 0x00002017 is the data, i need to convert the whole value to binary and see the bit status (for instance if bit 5 is set), then start constructing the binary output value (set bit 3 in a 32-bit binary) and repeat till the full binary input string is complete and decode the output to hex and print. i could make out the logic but dont know if i can do the following steps in perl. 1. after doing a hex2bin conversion to 32-bit can i right shift by one bit and then check the bit positions and accordingly OR it with a temporary string one by one to make the output value. please help thanks bala -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
