in thread Converting Hexadecimal to Decimal notation and vice-versa

Hi,
I tried the following and I got 'NaN' as the result.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
package main;
use Math::BigInt;
my $gene_sample_101dcef = Math::BigInt->as_hex("5555181933400000000066
+6");
print $gene_sample_101dcef,"\n";

    You have to call the method on an already existing object instance, for example: 

    print Math::BigInt->new("55551819334000000000666")->as_hex(), "\n";
