How do I convert decimal to hexadecimal in Perl?

perl

Solution

`1024` in decimal is not `0xFF` in hex. Instead, it is `0x400`.

You can use sprintf as:

my $hex = sprintf("0x%X", $d);

Problem

How can I convert a number, `$d = 1024`, in decimal to 0xFF in hex in Perl? The `d` variable needs to be assigned to a different variable and be printed, so for readability I required it to be in hexadecimal format.
