Normally by re-reading the documentation repeatedly, eventually, I get it. But not this time.
my $startdt = DateTime->new(day => 1, month => 4, year => 2007);
my $enddt = DateTime->new(day => 22, month => 10, year => 2007);
my $duration = $startdt->delta_days($enddt);
my $numdays = $duration->days;
print "Test: Number of days in period :$numdays (".$startdt->dmy('/').
+" - ".$enddt->dmy('/').")<Br>";
Result
Test: Number of days in period :1 (01/04/2007 - 22/10/2007)
Can anyone enlighten (if you'll excuse me using the term so thoughtlessly in a temple) me as to how I might get the correct duration in days and why this result is only 1?
