Re: [ic] Number of days between dates

are great for comparing dates formatted like 20071121 and 20071128 to
determine their chronological order, but is there a function that can
be used within IC to determine how many days lie between those dates?

Google came up with the following: use Date::Calc qw(Delta_Days);
my @today = (localtime)[107,10,28];
$today[0] += 1900;
$today[1]++;
my @fromday = (2007, 9, 13);
my $days = Delta_Days(@birthday, @today); print "$days days in between\n";
-----------------------------------
So you could see to use Date::Calc or check it out and steal their code for determining the delta. Maybe this helps. CU, Gert
