Dear Monks,

I come here for your wisdom, as I stumble upon this problem I have that I've been trying to accomplish eversince this mourning.

Can any of you please guide me on where to learn to find out the day range of the current week.

So for the month of June 2005, today is 6/23/2005. I want my Perl script to display this current week events. The start of the week was the Monday that just past which is 6/20 and the end of the week will be Sunday, which is 6/26.

This is easy of course to figure in your head, but I have no clue on where to start to tell Perl this. So basically what I'm searching for is a calculation or perhaps some module that does the calculating to find out the start of the week and the end of the week. I have this "annoucement script" and want to display the current weeks announcements.

Thanks!
