date format using localtime()

2004-03-12 Thread Jeff Westman

Is there a way in perl to get the month/day/year using localtime WITHOUT using 'use POSIX qw(strftime)' or a system "date" call. Something using slices, maybe something like: print scalar ((localtime(time))[4,3,7]) expecting the result to be 03122004. Trivial question, thanks in advance.
