It fooled me once.
I think the OP meant that one could add the '0' for the sort, not leave the
'0' in the IP.
When I first read the original post, I thought "oh, pad with zero then
remove", but the conversation quickly turned to all that squaring and such,
so I figured I must not know what the OP wanted.
I still suggest just padding, sorting, removing with a leading zero.
