In Perl, you can also use the Date::Manip module:
4. The amount of time between two dates.
$date1 = ParseDate($string1);
$date2 = ParseDate($string2);
$delta = DateCalc($date1,$date2,\$err);
=> 0:0:WK:DD:HH:MM:SS the weeks, days, hours, minutes,
and seconds between the two
$delta = DateCalc($date1,$date2,\$err,1);
=> YY:MM:WK:DD:HH:MM:SS the years, months, etc. between
the two
