Re^2: How can I convert epoch seconds to date format

wow... cheers for this. I develop primariliy in Java JS and python but have had to work with Perl quite a bit. As helpful as this is, I think its quite a shame that you have to hand-crank all this in Perl so you can read milliseconds from a timestamp..

Well, this thread is 9 years old, and no, you don't have to code your own millisecond handling in Perl - for example DateTime handles everything down to nanoseconds. Dates can be parsed via DateTime::Format::Strptime or any of the other `DateTime::Format::*` modules.	[reply] [d/l]

FWIW, you also did not have to do any of this in 2006 when jeanluca wrote that code, DateTime/DateTime::Format::Strptime were both available at that time	[reply]
