scanf equivalent?

2004-09-07 Thread David D Miller 




Experts:

How do I do the equivalent of scanf in perl?

My problem is to read a hex value from a file and process it in binary.
For instance, I read a file containing data of the form 0x0b4f.  Then I
need to mask/shift etc that data before displaying it.

You probably want hex().
perl -e print hex('0x0b4f')
perl -e printf('%x', hex('0x0b4f'))
perldoc -f hex
