Re: [MacPerl] How do I find the day of the week from a given date(NOT today)

I would do:

  #!perl -w
  use Date::Parse;
  print ( (localtime( str2time('15 Mar 1999') ))[6]);

Or for more clarity:

  #!perl -w
  use Date::Parse;
  use Time::localtime;
  print localtime(str2time('15 Mar 1999'))->wday;

Date::Parse is on CPAN.
