in reply to Get Time Diff *without* Date::Manip

I don't understand why you have to use Date::Manip or Date::Calc to calculate the difference between two timestamps :

use strict; my $start = time(); do_stuff_that_takes_long_time(); my $end = time(); my $difference_in_seconds = $end - $start; print "The process took $difference_in_seconds second(s)\n";

perldoc -f time tells you what you need to know. And you should use the Perl documentation more often for your homework - it makes no business sense to disallow any module.
