.SH "NAME"
Time::Seconds \- a simple API to convert seconds to other date values
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 2
\& use Time::Piece;
\& use Time::Seconds;
\&
\& my $t = localtime;
\& $t += ONE_DAY;
\&
\& my $t2 = localtime;
\& my $s = $t \- $t2;
\&
\& print "Difference is: ", $s\->days, "\en";
.Ve
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "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.
.PP
Time::Seconds also exports the following constants:
.PP
.Vb 9
\& ONE_DAY
\& ONE_WEEK
\& ONE_HOUR
\& ONE_MINUTE
\& ONE_MONTH
\& ONE_YEAR
\& ONE_FINANCIAL_MONTH
\& LEAP_YEAR
\& NON_LEAP_YEAR
.Ve
.PP
Since perl does not (yet?) support constant objects, these constants are in
seconds only, so you cannot, for example, do this: \f(CW\*(C`print ONE_WEEK\->minutes;\*(C'\fR
.SH "METHODS"
.IX Header "METHODS"
The following methods are available:
.PP
.Vb 10
\& 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
.Ve
.PP
The usual arithmetic (+,\-,+=,\-=) is also available on the objects.
.PP
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.

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