1 Date::Manip is a series of modules designed to make any common
2 date or time operation easy to do.
3 Operations such as comparing two times, determining a date a
4 given amount of time from another, or parsing international
5 times are all easily done.
6 It deals with time as it is used in the Gregorian calendar
7 (the one currently in use) with full support for time changes
8 due to daylight saving time.
10 From the very beginning, the main focus of Date::Manip has been
11 to be able to do ANY desired date or time operation easily.
12 Many other modules exist which may do a subset of these
13 operations quicker or more efficiently, but no other module
14 can do all of the operations available in Date::Manip.
16 Date::Manip has functionality to work with several fundamental
17 types of data.
