This is off topic. I never used a date module before. Tried with Date::Simple
use Date::Simple qw(:all);
my @dates = ('10/02/2004', '02/01/2004', '01/02/2004', '01/06/2004', '
+01/02/2005', '01/12/2004', '08/18/2010', '01/05/2005', '01/05/2004','
+01/05/2004');
@dates = map {$_->[0]} sort { &date($a->[1]) cmp &date($b->[1]) } map
+ {[$_, join '-',(split '/')[2,0,1]]} @dates;
print $_,$/ for (@dates);

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
