Hi All,
I am newbie to PERL.I think this is a very simple question to ask.
Is there any way to print a particular bit of a digit after converting
to binary form.
Thanks in Advance,
Praveena

Hello Praveena,
I recommend you to use pack and unpack function.
I believe you can use this to convert the digit to
binary and also extract the digit of your choice from
the result.
perldoc -f pack
type this command at your linux console if any to get
the help on pack.

Nishanth

That can be easily done with substr y sprintf, this would take the
second bit of 7 written in base 2:
% perl -wle 'print substr sprintf(%b, 7), -2,

Well, let's see.

Why convert anything to binary first, if you can use
$var (1 $bitpos)?
