Hi All,
I am using the Time::localtime module in my perl script for getting a
particular date format. It was working fine till last month, but for the
month of October it is seen that it's showing as September. I am pasting a
copy of my code below:
sub getLocalTime
{
my $tm = localtime
hour, $day, $month, $year );
You shouldn't predeclare all these variables here. Declare them when they are
needed. You also have both $sec and $seconds which is confusing.

Short answer is that the epoch started in 1970, so 1903 is "out of range"
for the purposes of localtime().
Don't use epoch seconds for storing historical dates like birth dates, etc.

var1 = this will be sunday of current week always
var2 = this will be saturday of current week always
I'm not sure how I can use 'localtime' as a tool

You can convert the date/time to seconds format using the Time::Local
module. It attempts to do a "reverse localtime()".

Hi,
You should seriously consider installing the 'at&#x
Actually this is a really common question. The thing you need to remember
is that when you use localtime(), what you are really saying is
localtime(time). Local time takes the number of seconds since the year 1970
and translates it into the array you are using UNLESS YOU SPECIFY ANOTHER
DATE

Howdy,
I need to back up two days from localtime and I can't figure out how to do
it. Currently I'm doing this just so I can work out the rest of the program:
($day, $month, $year) = (localtime) [3,4,5]; #getting your local time
information
$realday = $day-2;
if ($realday<1) {

timelocal does the opposite of localtime, returning seconds since the epoch
for the localtime style date array.
Is this what you were after?
