Have you never heard of TinyPerl? 😳
| [reply] |
TinyPerl does have a BigInt module, but I wanted to come up with my own different approach.
| [reply] |
Well, that's like asking "Why don't you just buy an airplane ticket?" from someone who built a model airplane. | [reply] |
Except that you have posted this in the Cool Uses For Perl section which explains right at the top:
This section is the place to post useful code
Nowhere in your OP have you stated that this code isn't intended for productive use. Perhaps you meant to post it somewhere else?
| [reply] |
It is intended for my use. Lol But if you think it's good enough, then you can use it too. However, I have seen two other solutions here that are better. So, like I said before, even if you don't have something smart to say, if you post something bad, others will correct you. And it's a good way to learn. I've talked with ChatGPT trying to get it to give me an alternative unique sub that converts binary to decimal, but it kept referring me to the bigint module. But by posting this here, I already got some great ideas, which are even better than my solution was.
