Re: Binary to decimal conversion

    // read number
    function readNumber(){
        $num = fread($this->buffer, 8);
        $r = "";
        for($byte = 7 ; $byte >= 0 ; $byte--) { // reverse the bytes
            $r .= $num[$byte];
        }
        $ret = unpack("dnum",$r);
        return $ret['num'];

That looks at lot like the lines 153-162 from here (direct link here): `153 // read number 154 function readNumber(){ 155 $num = fread($this->buffer, 8); 156 $r = ""; 157 for($byte = 7 ; $byte >= 0 ; $byte--) { // reverse the bytes 158 $r .= $num[$byte]; 159 } 160 $ret = unpack("dnum",$r); 161 return $ret['num']; 162 }` [download] And I believe that's PHP, not Perl. I'm thankful for the suggestion although still looking for the Perl equivalent of the above. -- Andreas	[reply] [d/l]
