jpdrolet Posted June 21, 2004 Report Posted June 21, 2004 Having a single format to read C constants from string e.g "123" as decimal "0123" as octal "0x123" as hexadecimal Quote

Good luck Quote

Good luck I did but the idea is to have a format specifier integrated with "Scan From String" so a string containing such constants can be parsed with the rest of the elements (instead of indentify the string, isolate it and convert it separately).

In C you wouldn't even think about asking for something like that I wonder if Perl has it. From all those strange programming languages I would expect it to be the first that would come up with such a universal superduper format specifier. Rolf Kalbermatter Quote
