Hi, I am new to Perl. I've got a task to convert a given time (e.g, 6 minutes 30 secs or 24 secs 50 millisecs) completely in seconds.
Welcome to the Monastery Lucifer.
The problem with your question is what I refer to as "problem definition." What format is your input being resented as (eg. 00:00:00.000 would be one way).
While you are at it check out Understanding and Using Perl Monks so that you can effectively ask questions that yield useful answers.

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.
