What is the best way...
Perhaps something using Date::Calc. The idea would be to take a date in the year, find the next monday, and if the year is the same, print it out. Then, keep adding 7 days until the year changes.
#! /usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Date::Calc 'Add_Delta_Days';
my ($day, $month, $year, $dow) = (localtime)[3, 4, 5, 6];
$year += 1900;
$month += 1;
my $this_year = $year;
($year, $month, $day) = Add_Delta_Days($year, $month, $day, (8 - $dow)
+ % 7);
while ($this_year == $year) {
printf "%04d-%02d-%02d\n", $year, $month, $day;
($year, $month, $day) = Add_Delta_Days($year, $month, $day, 7);
}
update: it occurs to me that it may not be obvious how this calculates Mondays, since it uses a magic number. It would be a little clearer had I written:
my %day = qw(
Sun 0
Mon 1
Tue 2
Wed 3
Thu 4
Fri 5
Sat 6
);
($year, $month, $day) = Add_Delta_Days($year, $month, $day, (7 + $day{
+Mon} - $dow) % 7);
