Well this is how it goes:
$a = 1234; # decimal number
basically for a variable you need the $ symbol and a name ie. $number
positive and negative numbers can be store. Negative numbers are stored by putting a - in front of
the number:
$number = -30; #negative 30 in other words
for octal you have to put a 0 in front of your number:
$number = 0123; # This is not 123 decimal
#its 123 in octal...83 in decimal
now hexadecimal numbers are in the form
$number = 0x12 # 12 in hex which is 18 in decimal. 0x says to the compiler that the number is a
hex
