Re^4: Big Int to hex with 5.6

you perhaps are using the ancient decrepit perl4-ish bigint.pl

I'm using active perl 5.6, and as far as i understand it as_hex is not in the methods offered : BigInt ActiveState

Sadly upgrading is not an option here. How can do it ? I'm trying to divide by 16 as in a standard conversion but it doesn't work very well ...

Did you try `perl -MCPAN -we"install Math::BigInt"`? (May require you to install nmake; see http://search.cpan.org/src/MSCHWERN/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.24/README for where you can get it.)	[reply] [d/l]
