The algorithm was fine. The main reason your initial code produced the wrong result seems to have been that the hex() function did the opposite of what you expected. However, doing it yourself is inefficient and open to errors, such as using functions which do the opposite of what you intended. Increasing your familiarity with the language allows you to choose more efficient and less error-susceptible, not to mention simpler and clearer, alternatives. > I've been interested in Pearl since it can be used either to make a > "native" > application and also web. The same is true of both Java and C/C++. While I'm a Perl junkie myself, I have written web-based apps in low-level C and I hear there are 1 or 2 people out there using Java on the web, too. -- The freedoms that we enjoy presently are the most important victories of the White Hats over the past several millennia, and it is vitally important that we don't give them up now, only because we are frightened. - Eolake Stobblehouse (http://stobblehouse.com/text/battle.html) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
