wow, that's a bunch of code. this is why i use Date::Manip; for this sort of thing. it includes leap year. however, if you want to add leap year to this, maybe use something like if ($year % 4)... don't remember when leap year is, so adjust as needed. i also store all of my timestamps in epoch format which makes things easy (print time() ). however, if this is just an exercise and nothing practical, ignore all of this. however, since Date::Manip is pretty mature, you might look through that code for some decent ideas. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
