Use Time::Local and POSIX::strftime:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use POSIX; use Time::Local; my $time = '31Nov00'; my ($day, $mon, $year) = ($time =~ /^(\d+)([A-Za-z]+)(\d+)$/); my @months = qw( Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec ); my $i; my $mon_num; for($i=0; $i<=$#months; $i++){ if ($mon eq $months[$i]) { $mon_num = $i; last; } } my $epochsecs = timelocal(0, 0, 0, $day-1, $mon_num, $year); my $tomorrowsecs = $epochsecs + 86400; my @tomorrow = localtime($tomorrowsecs); my $timestr = POSIX::strftime("%d%b%y", 0, 0, 0, @tomorrow[3..5]); print $timestr; exit;
