in reply to Re: ASCII Conversion
in thread ASCII Conversion

I am a newbie's newby. I am taking an on-line course through a local university in AZ. My problem is that the book we are using for a textbook does not explain anything like what the instructor is asking for, and he doesn't answer his emails. He even gives references which do not even have anything to do with the question. So I am looking for an answer. There is more to the problem than what I am asking, but I can get the rest if I can figure out how to use unpack to come up with the ASCII values for the printable characters. Oh Yeah, when I do a perldocs -f unpack I get an error both on my Windows system and my UNIX (Solaris) system. Bob

    try perldoc -f unpack instead of perldocs -f unpack
    note there is no s in perldoc
    Update: Oh, I forgot, you can also go to unpack and get the same information.
