Re^4: problems parsing Time/Date strings

"All CET countries use daylight saving"

Algeria and Tunisia use CET but do not observe daylight saving.

"If the function takes no account of what the actual time is, what use is it?"

What function?

Update: in case anyone doubts me and tries to claim that Algeria uses West Africa Time, not Central European Time, then note that Wikipedia backs me up, as does DateTime...

$ perl -MDateTime -E'say "$_: ", DateTime->now->set_time_zone($_)->str
+ftime("%F %T %Z (%z)") for @ARGV' Europe/Paris Africa/Algiers Africa/
+Tunis Africa/Lagos
