Hello everyone,

I am a beginner with perl and I am creating a small mysql database where I need to 
extract information conditionally (in part) on the date information. ie:
 .... WHERE date > startdate AND < finishdate

What is the BEST way to store the date with perl so that I can perform all sorts of 
arithmetic operations on it. 
ie endDate = startDate + 7.  etc etc.
 
Many Thanks
Peter
