Hi esteemed monks!

I just want to know if there exist any CPAN module which allows me to do complex date arithmetic.
Say, for example,I have a date 20031105 (as you gueesed in yyyymmdd format):)

And I want to know what would be the date after three months from this date (by simple lookup on calendar we can say it is 20040205)
It is very simple to program it and presently I have coded the script with the use of all regex and simple addition,but am sure that there exists a CPAN module to do this for me in a much more abstracted and neat manner.

Please help me out guys!

Thanks
Karthik
