>From perlfunc(1):
oct EXPR ...
(If EXPR happens to start off with 0x, interprets
it as a hex string. If EXPR starts off with 0b,
it is interpreted as a binary string.)
But the binary string conversion doesn't seem to work:
natto% perl -e 'print oct("0b11000110")."\n"'
0
This is otherwise a valid binary string:
natto% perl -e 'print unpack('C', (pack("B8", "11000110")))."\n"'
198
The hex string conversion function does work:
natto% perl -e 'print oct("0xC6")."\n"'
198
[Please do not change anything below this line]
