I have a string of hex that represent ebcdic characters. Is there a
way that I can do the following in perl.

hex string = "f1f2d7d9f0"

the result I want = "12PR0"

From looking up a ascii/hex/ebcdic table, I was able to arrive at
the

result. ie: f1 => 1, f2 => 2, d7 =>P etc..

Is there a perl function that will do this?

There is a module.

use Convert::EBCDIC 'ebcdic2ascii';
$hex = 'f1f2d7d9f0';
( $ebcdic = $hex ) =~ s/(..)/chr(hex $1)/eg;
$ascii = ebcdic2ascii( $ebcdic );

See also Encode.
