Looping between dates

[Zippeh]

Hi!

I want to be able to loop between two dates. Say the two date are 2006/01/01 and 2006/02/01. What I want is to be able to access each day in the range so I can pass that day, and the day before it into a function. Hmm that doesn't make sense...

My function is defined as follows:

ychwaneguData($startDate, $endDate)

so my function calls with the above range should be:

ychwaneguData("01/01/2006", "02/01/2006");
ychwaneguData("02/01/2006", "03/01/2006");
ychwaneguData("03/01/2006", "04/01/2006");

Assuming a DD/MM/YYYY format.

Hope that makes sense! Thanks in advance.

Take a look at the Date::Calc module. It would be what you need to get all of the dates between two fairly easily. It also has some nice functionality to determine if the date is a business day, holiday or many other functions.
