Time::Seconds(3perl)             Perl Programmers Reference Guide            Time::Seconds(3perl)

NAME
       Time::Seconds - a simple API to convert seconds to other date values

SYNOPSIS
           use Time::Piece;
           use Time::Seconds;

           my $t = localtime;
           $t += ONE_DAY;

           my $t2 = localtime;
           my $s = $t - $t2;

           print "Difference is: ", $s->days, "\n";

DESCRIPTION
       This module is part of the Time::Piece distribution. It allows the user to find out the
       number of minutes, hours, days, weeks or years in a given number of seconds. It is
       returned by Time::Piece when you delta two Time::Piece objects.

       Time::Seconds also exports the following constants:

           ONE_DAY
           ONE_WEEK
           ONE_HOUR
           ONE_MINUTE
           ONE_MONTH
           ONE_YEAR
           ONE_FINANCIAL_MONTH
           LEAP_YEAR
           NON_LEAP_YEAR

       Since perl does not (yet?) support constant objects, these constants are in seconds only,
       so you cannot, for example, do this: "print ONE_WEEK->minutes;"

METHODS
       The following methods are available:

           my $val = Time::Seconds->new(SECONDS)
           $val->seconds;
           $val->minutes;
           $val->hours;
           $val->days;
           $val->weeks;
           $val->months;
           $val->financial_months; # 30 days
           $val->years;
           $val->pretty; # gives English representation of the delta

       The usual arithmetic (+,-,+=,-=) is also available on the objects.

       The methods make the assumption that there are 24 hours in a day, 7 days in a week,
       365.24225 days in a year and 12 months in a year.  (from The Calendar FAQ at

Bugs
       Currently the methods aren't as efficient as they could be, for reasons of clarity. This
       is probably a bad idea.
