Re^2: Exact definition of DateCalc and Delta_Format functions by SBECK (Chaplain) on Mar 20, 2024 at 19:34 UTC
I would encourage you to use the far more powerful OO interface in Date::Manip rather than the older functional interface. Instead of using DateCalc, use the calc method (and see here for the full description of date calculations. Instead of using Delta_Format, use the printf method (and see here for a full description of delta formatting). Of course, if you already have a script that uses the functional interface, it may not be worth the effort to change it.	[reply]
