How can DateTime be too hard to figure out? Come on!
use DateTime;
my $date = DateTime->new( month => 2,
day => 4,
year => 2008 );
print "Start Date: " . $date->mdy . "\n";
$date->subtract( days => 1);
print "Yesterday's Date: " . $date->mdy . "\n";
while( $date->day_of_week > 5) {
$date->subtract( days => 1);
}
print "Next weekday date is " . $date->mdy() . "\n";
See! Easy as pie, a cow pie even! :)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
