I am looking for the best way to remove leading zeros from numbers.

For example I have the following numbers:
0032104595
0159789956
0001649850
1234859782

I need to remove leading zeros so the numbers end up to be:
32104595
159789956
1649850
1234859782

Any assistance would be appreciated.
 
Thanks for the reply, but I used this:
$var =~ s/^0+//;
