thx, but when i am using it in a script i am getting error, from CLI the same input is recognized as numeric and i get proper output. here it is:
You said: "input would be: 32 bit hex value like: 0x00FE3453".
i am getting the input value by splitting a string to an array. does split function makes the array values character? $string = a:b:1:2:0x00D70803:0x00FE3490;
You didn't say that "0x00FE3453" would be a string, or part of a larger string.
And, by the way, that statement is not valid Perl. You have to use quotes of some kind to delimit strings.
$ perl -e'$string = a:b:1:2:0x00D70803:0x00FE3490;' syntax error at -e line 1, near "a:" Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.
