RE: getting date from localtime
Howdy: I'm trying to do the following (which may have been created already) in perl: * create two variables var1 = this will be sunday of current week always var2 = this will be saturday of current week always I'm not sure how I can use 'localtime' as a tool for identifying var1 and var2. I mean, I think I can work around this: ($mday, $mon, $year) = (localtime())[3 .. 5]; Which gives me day-of-month, month and year, but how to used that as a focal point to get that saturday and sunday of the current week without some silly if-then-else loop. Perhaps I am going about this the wrong way. It seems like var1 and var2 will actually be large formulas. Suggestions? perldoc -f localtime element 6 gives the weekday..will that help ?? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
