Greetings All
What is the best way to convert the Day_of_Year to text.
I dont see anything in the DATE::CALC module.
Any Ideas
Thanks Cal



In the begining
Let us first assume that there was nothing to begin with.

Why would you want to? I mean what's the purpose?

I'm assuming you want something that will produce the ordinal value (i.e. 207 -> 207th, 231 -> 231st). If so you'd use English_Ordinal. Example:
Code: 
use Date::Calc qw (English_Ordinal Day_of_Year Today);
print "Today is the ", English_Ordinal(Day_of_Year(Today())), " day of the year\n";
Hope that helps.
