hex to dec and dec to hex

[Ken Lehman]

Is there an easy way to go back and forth between decimal and hex in perl.
I know of the hex function which solves my hex to dec problem but how about
a dec->hex function or module? I need the value which is why printf isn't
working for me.
Thanks for any help.

Are you aware of 'sprintf'?

my $decimal_value = 10;
my $hex_value = sprintf '%x', $decimal_value;
