Hi Joyeux,
If I get you right, you probabily want to display your current date, in some format. If so, you can do like so:
use warnings;
use strict;
my ( $day, $month, $year ) = (localtime)[ 3 .. 5 ];
print sprintf "%s : %s : %s\n", $day, $month + 1, $year + 1900, $/;
#OR
use POSIX qw(strftime);
print strftime "%d - %m - %Y\n", localtime;
#OR
use Time::localtime;
my $tm = localtime;
my $day = $tm->mday();
my $month = $tm->mon() + 1;
my $year = $tm->year() + 1900;
print sprintf "%s \\ %s \\ %s", $day, $month, $year;
You might also like to check this module on CPAN
Date::Calc,
Date::Manip
If you tell me, I'll forget.
If you show me, I'll remember.
if you involve me, I'll understand.
