To see how (un)packing works, we'll start with a simple template
4343
code where the conversion is in low gear: between the contents of a byte
44-
sequence and a string of hexadecimal digits. Let's use C<unpack>, since
45-
this is likely to remind you of a dump program, or some desperate last
46-
message unfortunate programs are wont to throw at you before they expire
47-
into the wild blue yonder. Assuming that the variable C<$mem> holds a
48-
sequence of bytes that we'd like to inspect without assuming anything

sequence and a string of hexadecimal digits. Let's use C<unpack>,
45+
since this may remind you of a hex dump or a crash message emitted by
46+
a program just before it fails. Assuming that the variable C<$mem> holds
47+
a sequence of bytes that we'd like to inspect without assuming anything
4948
about its meaning, we can write

my( $hex ) = unpack( 'H*', $mem );
