From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 31 October 2005 17:08 To: [email protected] Subject: Comparing dates
> Gurus, > A simple one: what's the best, quickest, way to get the difference between two dates. They're both in the same > format: "YYYYMMDD". One of them gets ginned up into that format starting from a call to time (that is, $x = > time; stuff happens to $x; $y ends up "20051031";), the other's read in as a string from a file. The best way is usually the simplest and clearest. See Date::Calc. There plenty of other Data modules, but I would start there.
