I believe the above posted code is incorrect. An example string that breaks this is:
0001111000001111000001111000001111000001111000001111000001111000001111
+000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
+000000000000000000000000001111000001111000001111000001111000001111000
+00111100000111100000111100000111100000111100
One correct way of doing bin2hex is:
sub bin2hex {
my $line = $_[0];
my $lenCount = 4;
my $hexLine = "";
my $width = '4';
while ( length($line) % $width != 0) {
$line = '0' . $line;
}
while ($lenCount <= length($line)) {
my $x = substr ($line, -($lenCount), $width);
$hexLine = sprintf("%X", oct("0b$x")).$hexLine;
$lenCount += 4;
}
print "In bin2hex: $line\nAfter bin2hex: $hexLine\n\n";
return $hexLine;
}
