unpack "C", "f" or unpack "c", "f" or unpack "U", "f" or ord "f" all give the character code of "f", which is 102. unpack "H", "A" gives "4", and you can replace the "A" with any other letter between "@" and "O". Thus, unpack "HC", "Af" returns ("4", 102). If you concatenate and reverse that list, you get "2014". From there, I just had to modify the strings until it gave something meaningful instead of random letters.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
