hex

Examples:
hex-EXPR
hex
Description:

Interprets EXPR as a hex string and returns the corresponding value. (To convert strings that might start with either 0, 0x, or 0b, see oct.) If EXPR is omitted, uses $_.

    print hex '0xAf'; # prints '175'
    print hex 'aF';   # same  

Hex strings may only represent integers. Strings that would cause integer overflow trigger a warning. Leading whitespace is not stripped, unlike oct().
