What would be the easiest way to display a number as dual / binary number?
For example: 29 is to be displayed as 11101.
In PHP this would work:
but not so in Perl.
Any idea?

"%b" works in perl5.8.x, and,
judging by the "perldoc -f sprintf" for 5.6.1, in 5.6.1 too.
This is what I was looking for.
My MacPerl version number was 5.2.0r4; I just downloaded
MacPerl 5.6.1r2

You need the Dev or Xcode Tools installed and up to date for your version
of Mac OS X. If you've got that, a simple:

You can use unpack.
Here is an example from MacOS X rather than macperl, but it should work
the same way.
% perl -e 'print unpack("B*", chr(29)), "\n"'

strings; that is
% perl -e 'print unpack("B*", 29), "\n"'
00110
