Resetiing business day

Business day value resetting

Here in loop everytime $d value is being stored in new variable but $tem_bd value is being increased instead of resetting. How do we reset business day. Code is as below

my $d = new Date::Business();
while ($n <=10)
{
my $temp_bd=$d;
$temp_bd->addb(1);
$start{'date'}= $temp_bd->image();
print "\n Date- $start{'date'}";
$n++;
}

[Corion]

my $d = new Date::Business();
...
my $temp_bd=$d;

Here, $temp_bd and $d refer to the same object. Simple assignment in Perl does not copy an object. So if you modify $temp_bd, you also modify $d.

Yah, You are right. I found a way to do that. Here is modified code.

use Date::Business;
my %start;
my $n=1;
my $temp_bd;
my $d = new Date::Business();
while ($n <=10)
{
$temp_bd= new Date::Business($d);
$temp_bd->addb(2);
$start{'date'}= $temp_bd->image();
$start{'date1'}= $d->image();
print "\n Date- $start{'date'}";
print "\n Date1- $start{'date1'}";
$n++;
}
Just new object had to start with original using method of package instead of assignment operator.

addb doesn't spell reset

for my $n ( 0 .. 10 ){
    my $date = Date::Business->new;
...
}
