There is also an example in the Date::Calc distribution that does exactly
what you want:
<cpan build directory>/Date-Calc-4.3/examples/nth_weekday.pl
which is called like:
perl nth_weekday.pl <nth> <weekday> <month> <year>
running
perl nth_weekday.pl 3rd Friday 7 2001
yields:
The 3rd Friday in July 2001 is Friday, July 20th 2001.
