Re: How do I convert each character in a string to its ASCII value ?

From the Perl Cookbook:
Use pack and unpack. Here is an example (recipe 1.4):

@ascii_character_number = unpack( "C*", "sample" );
print "@ascii_character_number\n";
#prints 115 97 109 112 108 101

$word = pack( "C*", @ascii_character_numbers );
$word = pack( "C*", 115, 97, 109, 112, 108, 101 ); # same
print "$word\n";
#prints sample
