jhumphreys:
Sorry, I was a bit too idiomatic there. I probably should've suggested something more like:
my @bits;
for (128 64 32 16 8 4 2 1) {
push @bits, ($dec & $_) <=> 0;
}
Basically, I saw the wall of:
my $dec_a = $dec & 128;
my $dec_b = $dec & 64;
my $dec_c = $dec & 32;
my $dec_d = $dec & 16;
my $dec_e = $dec & 8;
my $dec_f = $dec & 4;
my $dec_g = $dec & 2;
my $dec_h = $dec & 1;
and thought to myself that really a loop was needed.

When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
