Re: Two digit year with DateTime?

Time::Piece has been a core module since at least 5.10 so can save you having to install extra modules.

johngg@shiraz:~/perl/Monks$ perl -Mstrict -Mwarnings -MTime::Piece -E 
+'
my $tp = localtime();
say qq{2-digit year - }, $tp->yy();'
2-digit year - 19

I hope this is helpful.

Cheers,

JohnGG

This is how dumb I am: I first read the “19” as being the leading two digits of the date and wondered why the library did that and why you were posting broken code… :\|	[reply]

A person has to look for the matching single quote marks with many of johngg's replies. They are technically one-liners but legible perl on the terminal and effective as sscce.	[reply]

This was just me still dating checks in my mind from the last century, thinking it's still the 1900s. Neurons pining for the good old days and many lost companions. :P	[reply]
