The input can be in variable formats:
my @dates = (
"2018-02-20 00:00:00",
"20180220",
"02/20/2018",
"02/20/18", # interpreted as 1918-02-20
"2018-02-20"
);
Date::Parse handles those (with some massaging). DateTime::Format::Strptime requires well formatted dates to begin with.
Am I missing a module of DateTime or Time::Piece that can handle the different input formats?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
