The Steps to Base58-encode a Peercoin Public Key

Protocol
1

Hey guys,

I hope someone can help me with this challenge. I would like to know the process that is used for converting a
hex-130 character public key into a Peercoin address. If you can read C++, reading the source code here https://github.com/ppcoin/ppcoin/blob/master/src/base58.h#L1, will help.
Let’s use this for example,
130 Character Public Key: 04BE0611352B5C7614861E3DB085D2188D1A78465E03E65B4360699272DB5AC96B1BDB7A765A2B306CD866C856B0E124FA5BF91C82806A5A4E3DD491E6935D0960

The Peercoin Address is: PRL8bojUujzDGA6HRapzprXWFxMyhpS7Za

Note: This is a valid public key, I got this key from http://tizop.com/peercoin.htm and I tested it with ppcoind.
