# perl-Date-Manip
|
|
|
|
This is a set of routines designed to make any common date/time manipulation easy to do.
|
|
Operations such as comparing two times, calculating a time a given amount of time from another, or parsing international times are all easily done.
|
|
From the very beginning, the main focus of Date::Manip has been to be able to do ANY desired date/time operation easily, not necessarily quickly.
|
|
Also, it is definitely oriented towards the type of operations we (as people) tend to think of rather than those operations used routinely by computers.
|
|
There are other modules that can do a subset of the operations available in Date::Manip much quicker than those presented here, so be sure to read the section SHOULD I USE DATE::MANIP below before deciding which of the Date and Time modules from CPAN is for you.
