what would be the best way to assign each value to a variable name? Something like this, for example: `my ($long1, $long2, $byte1, $byte2, $double) = unpack 'NNCCd', $raw;` [download] (of course, choose names as you see fit...)	[reply] [d/l]

Your next lesson is to understand that it's Perl (the language) or perl (the interpreter) but never PERL. Yes, we are picky about such things:) Unless I state otherwise, all my code runs with strict and warnings	[reply]

See Perl Books in perlfaq2, or Book Reviews in the Reviews section here at the Monastery. Personally, I preferred O'Reilly's The Perl Cookbook. Unless I state otherwise, all my code runs with strict and warnings	[reply]
