No need to apologize, no harm done. It s certainly enough with me that you just have the full perlmonks page reference attached. I am really honored that you found my code interesting enough to use for your class. I hope the class is going well.

On a side note, since you are teaching a class in perl, you should check into the site more often, and maybe even get a username!

Sorry to hear the Italian translation was so bad, Apparently you are pretty fluent in English though, so everything works out.....Feel free to continue to use the code snippet for as long as you like.

my $a='62696c6c77667269656e6440676d61696c2e636f6d';
while ($a=~m/(^.{2})/s)
{print unpack('A',pack('H*',"$1"));$a=~s/^.{2}//s;}
