I'm trying to write a subroutine that returns the full month name, for
example January, or February when I call the subroutine and pass a
scalar, for example $m that could have a value in one of the following
format

1. three letter format, for example jan or feb, or
2. one or digit format for example "01" or "1" for january

Example:

sub returnFullmonth{

}

from the main program:

$month ="Feb";
#or $month = "02" or "2";

$fullMonth = &returnFullmonth($month);

print "Month: $fullMonth";
expected out put: Month: February

can some help me and tell me how to write the subroutine?

Many thanks in advance.
