in reply to Date pattern matching

Hi, Welcome to PerlMonks.

There are modules to do what you have requested. Have a look at Date::Day. You might need to install that module.

    Thanks, but the thing is, I can't use any external modules for that and the link that you gave me is related with a module Regards
      Hi May we know why you cannot use external modules?

      CPAN is a well-known repository of perl modules. Using modules is considered good practice here. It takes some time to understand the module but it saves lot of time and brings the knowledge domain and experties of others to you in very short time. Since you are doing CGI related stuff, I would mention CGI.pm as well.

        Is just because I'm doing an assignment with some restrictions, in other words I'm not allowed to use any external modules. Regards
      What is it that keeps you from using a module?
