if I have a numeric literal that starts with one or more zeroes, how do 
I increment it without losing the preceeding zeroes?

for example,

$s="0001";
$e="0010";

while ($s <= $e) {

	print $s,"\n;
	$s++;

}

would give me:
0001
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10

I appologize for making you dumber for having read this, but I know 
there must be some easy way of doing this that I am just not seeing.
