This is the perl5 Date-Calc distribution. It requires perl version
|
|
5.000 or later
|
|
|
|
This package consists of a C library and a Perl module (which uses
|
|
the C library, internally) for all kinds of date calculations based
|
|
on the Gregorian calendar (the one used in all western countries today),
|
|
thereby complying with all relevant norms and standards: ISO/R 2015-1971,
|
|
DIN 1355 and, to some extent, ISO 8601 (where applicable).
|
|
|
|
The module of course handles year numbers of 2000 and above correctly
|
|
("Year 2000" or "Y2K" compliance) -- actually all year numbers from 1
|
|
to the largest positive integer representable on your system (which
|
|
is at least 32767) can be dealt with.
