( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

You can easily do it yourself:

use strict; use warnings; my $str = shift @ARGV; my %months = ( 'Jan' => '01', 'Feb' => '02', 'Mar' => '03', 'Apr' => '04', 'May' => '05', 'Jun' => '06', 'Jul' => '07', 'Aug' => '08', 'Sep' => '09', 'Oct' => '10', 'Nov' => '11', 'Dec' => '12' ); my ($year,$month,$day) = (substr ($str,-2,2,""),substr($str,-3,3,""),$ +str); my $modstr = join '-',($months{$month},length $day == 1 ? '0'.$day : $ +day, '20'.$year); print $modstr."\n"; # Run it!: # perl date_convert.pl 16May07 # 05-16-2007 # perl date_convert.pl 4Dec03 # 12-04-2003

But be careful with years < 2000! :-)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
