Please check if this works for you. Simple solution to work for each month in reverse direction.

use v5.14; #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Time::Piece; my $t = Time::Piece->new(); my $year = $ARGV[0] || 2014; foreach my $month ( 1 .. 12 ) { #Make an object with first day of each month and use it to get las +t day of each month my $tFirstDayObject = $t->strptime( "$year/$month/1", "%Y/%m/%d" ) +; my $monthLastDay = $tFirstDayObject->month_last_day; #Now make an object with this last date and use it to get last wee +kDay number my $tLastDayObject = $t->strptime( "$year/$month/$monthLastDay", " +%Y/%m/%d" ); my $weekDay = $tLastDayObject->wday; #Now calculate how many days to add in this weekDay taking Sunday +as the first day my $daysToMoveBack = 0; $weekDay >= 6 ? ( $daysToMoveBack = $weekDay - 6 ) : ( $daysToMove +Back = $weekDay + 1 ); my $lastFridayDate = $monthLastDay - $daysToMoveBack; #Now make an object with this $lastFridayDate for each month my $tLastFridayObject = $t->strptime( "$year/$month/$lastFridayDat +e", "%Y/%m/%d" ); say $tLastFridayObject->cdate; }
Output:

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
