I added the correct HTML tags to the post to make it easier to get help.
I am using Perl version 5.10
$lines2 = " PERIOD 13 OCT 06 OCT";
$lines2 =~ /\d\d \w\w\w/g;
$lines2 =~ s/(\d\d) (\w\w\w)/"\u\L$2 " . ($1 + 0)/eg;
$lines2 =~ /(\w\w\w \d\d) \s+ (\w\w\w \d\d)/;
print "dates: $1 and $2 \n";
#this line only works with 5.14.
#push (@date, map { s/(\d\d) (\w\w\w)/"\u\L$2 " . ($1 + 0)/er } $lines
+2 =~ /\d\d \w\w\w/g);
push (@date, $1);
push (@date, $2);
$date[0] = $date[0]. ", ". $currentyear;
$date1 = $date1. ", ". $currentyear;
Output:
dates: 06 and OCT
I need it to be dates: Oct 06 and Oct 13
