Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Date derivation Post 302770085 by help_scr_seeker on Thursday 14th of February 2013 11:44:23 AM

Code:
use strict;
use warnings;
use DateTime;
my $d = DateTime->now;
while ( $d->day_of_week != 6 ) {
    $d->subtract( days => 1 );
        }
        print $d->ymd;

I developed this code in perl. Unfortunately, the perl modules is not installed in the client server. So unable to use that :-(

I need some help in shell scripting.
