    And nowadays the same thing with a core module

    perl -MTime::Piece -e "print localtime->week"

perl -le "s,,reverse killer,e,y,rifle,lycra,,print"

    I'll vote for that.

    Sigh. I don't know how long I looked for a simple solution before I gave up and wrote one, but somehow I never saw the DateTime option. Still, I think it's worth publishing the algorithm, even if it's only a benefit for people who need to implement it in something other than perl...

    I might simplify some code next week.

    PS - I wonder why I can see the module on CPAN, but not via PPM in any of Active's repositories
