| The Date::Calc package consists of a C library and a Perl module (which
uses the C library internally) for all kinds of date calculations based on
the Gregorian calendar (the one used in all Western countries today),
thereby complying with all relevant norms and standards: ISO/R 2015-1971,
DIN 1355 and, to some extent, ISO 8601 (where applicable). The package is
designed as an efficient toolbox, not a bulky ready-made application. It
provides extensive documentation and examples of use, multi-language
support, and special functions for business needs. The C library is
specifically designed so that it can be used stand-alone, without Perl. |
