Sweetmorn 2. Boomtime 3. Pungenday 4. Prickle-Prickle 5. Setting Orange The days of the week are named from the five Basic Elements: sweet, boom, pungent, prickle and orange. =head3 Holydays Apostle Holydays Season Holydays ---------------- --------------- 1) Mungday 1) Chaoflux 2) Mojoday 2) Discoflux 3) Syaday 3) Confuflux 4) Zaraday 4) Bureflux 5) Maladay 5) Afflux Apostle Holydays occur on the 5th day of the Season. Season Holydays occur on the 50th day of the Season. St. Tib's Day occurs once every 4 years (1+4=5) and is inserted between the 59th and 60th days of the Season of Chaos. The era of the Discordian Calendar is called Year Of Lady Discord (YOLD.) Its' epoch (Confusion 1 of year 0) is equivalent to January 1, -1167 B.C. X Day is when the Church of the SubGenius believes the alien X-ists will destroy the world. The revised date is equivalent to Confusion 40, 9827 YOLD. =head1 USAGE =over 4 =item B Constructs a new I object. This class method requires the parameters I, I, and I. The parameters I, I. and I are also accepted for compatability with other I modules but they are not used. If I is given as "St. Tib's Day" (or reasonable facsimile thereof,) then I is omitted. This function will C if invalid parameters are given. For example: my $dtcd = DateTime::Calendar::Discordian->new( day => 8, season => 'Discord', year => 3137, ); =item B Returns a copy of the object. =item B Returns the day of the season as a number between 1 and 73 or the string "St. Tib's Day". =item B Returns the name of the day of the week in abbreviated form or undef if it is "St. Tib's Day". =item B Returns the full name of the day of the week or "St. Tib's Day" if it is that day. =item B Returns the number of days until X Day. =item B Builds a I object from another I object. This function takes an I parameter and optionally I. For example: my $dtcd = DateTime::Calendar::Discordian->from_object( object => DateTime->new(day => 22, month => 3, year => 1971,)); =item B If the current day is a holy day, returns the name of that day otherwise returns an empty string. =item B Returns the abbreviated name of the current season. =item B Returns the full name of the current season. =item B This function takes one or more parameters consisting of strings containing special specifiers. For each such string it will return a string formatted according to the specifiers, er, specified. See the L section for a list of the available format specifiers. They have been chosen to be compatible with the L program not necessarily the L C function. If you give a format specifier that doesn't exist, then it is simply treated as text. =item B Returns a three-element array containing the current UTC RD days, seconds, and nanoseconds. See L for more details. =item B Returns the current year according to the YOLD (Year Of Lady Discord) era. =back =head2 strftime Specifiers The following specifiers are allowed in the format string given to the B method: =over 4 =item * %a Abbreviated name of the day of the week (i.e., SM.) Internally uses the I function. =item * %A Full name of the day of the week (i.e., Sweetmorn.) Internally uses the I function. =item * %b Abbreviated name of the season (i.e., Chs.) Internally uses the I function. =item * %B Full name of the season (i.e., Chaos.) Internally uses the I function. =item * %d Ordinal number of day in season (i.e., 23.) Internally uses the I function. =item * %e Cardinal number of day in season (i.e., 23rd.) =item * %H Name of current Holyday, if any. Internally uses the I function. =item * %n A newline character. =item * %N Magic code to prevent rest of format from being printed unless today is a Holyday. =item * %t A tab character. =item * %X Number of days remaining until X-Day. Internally uses the I function. =item * %Y Number of Year Of Lady Discord (YOLD.) Internally uses the I function. =item * %{ =item * %} Used to enclose the part of the string which is to be replaced with the words "St. Tib's Day" if the current day is St. Tib's Day. =item * %% A literal `%' character. =item * %% A literal `%' character. =item * %.
