Hex Help

[kardon33]

I have a question for you guys, I need to send a UDP packet with the hex values of 0 to 255 my code looks somthing like this.

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";
 
  use IO::Socket;
  #use strict;
  use warnings;
 
  for($i=0;$i<16;$i++){
    my $hexnum = sprintf "%x", $i;
 
$hexnum = 0 x ( 2 - length( $hexnum ) ) . $hexnum;
 
    my $level = chr(0x.($hexnum));
      print $level,"<br>";
 
$DmxData = $filler x ( 509 - length( $level ) ) . $level;
 
  my $OpOutput = $ID.$Opcode2.$prover2.$ArtDmxP.$DmxData.$filler.$filler.$filler;
 
  $poll->send($OpOutput);
  }
    print "DMX packets sent.\n<hr>";

Ive been looking at my packet scanner and trying to find out the problem and it seems to have a distinct pattern, It will send the first 10 packets fine how they should be like 00-09 than it for 7 packets send 00 and than start working where it left off and run for 10 more good packets, than send 7 more ones with 01 and every 10 packets increasing 00 01 02 so on.

Please could anyone help me it would be very appreciated.

I can't figure out what it is you want help with.

[kardon33]

I need to send hex values from 0-255 through UDP

how would i convert the number to hex and then convert them so i could send it.

[KevinADC]

You already know how to convert the numbers to hex:

for my $i (0..255){
    my $hex = sprintf "%x", $i;
    print $hex\n";
}

if you have to do something else to send those value via UDP I don't know anything about that myself.
