I guess you didn't try your program:

C:\>perl -w 676783.pl Argument "0x2" isn't numeric in addition (+) at 676783.pl line 8. Argument "0x28" isn't numeric in addition (+) at 676783.pl line 8. 0 0

This oneliner shows that this isn't the case:

>perl -le "print '0x42' + '0x10'" 0

But of course, if you leave off the single quotes, Perl will interpret the numbers as numbers (in hexadecimal notation) and add them like it does add all numbers (regardless of their notation):

>perl -le "print 0x42 + 0x10" 82

... but that's because internally, Perl does just see the numbers as numbers (without any representation to any base).

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
