Use the X, x and # format codes in printf and sprintf: $num = 15; printf("%X\n", $num); # F printf("%x\n", $num); # f printf("%02x\n", $num); # 0f printf("%#x\n", $num); # 0xf printf("0x%02x\n", $num); # 0x0f The last example is excessive but it forces formatting for zero: printf("%#x\n", 0); # 0 printf("0x%02x\n", 0); # 0x00	[reply]

Alternatively, to get the hex in a variable: `$octet = 192; $out = pack "c", $octet; $hex = unpack "H2", $out;` [download] Edited by davido: Added code tags.	[reply] [d/l]
