Hi,
Hello,
How do I randomly produce a date between 1st Jan 1960 to 31th December 1985. It must be able to show the day month year. I only know how to produce a random number between 1960 to 1985 using rand like this : my $year = int (rand 26) + 1960;
use Time::Local; my $start = timegm 0,0,0,1,0,60; my $end = timegm 0,0,0,1,0,86; print scalar gmtime $start + rand $end - $start; John -- Perl isn't a toolbox, but a small machine shop where you can special-order certain sorts of tools at low cost and in short order. -- Larry Wall -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
