Instead of modifying Perderabo's script, you can use printf formatting option to zero lpad:
Code:
$ ./datecalc -a 2003 10 01 - 1 | read y m d
$ printf "%d%02d%02d\n" $y $m $d
20030930
Yoda - Thanks for your prompt reply. But I am not sure if I understand correctly.
Can I use the printf command as an conjuction to Perderabo's script's output?
Basically, the reason why I am using Perderabo's script is to find out the date which is 21 days older than system date in the format of YYYYMMDD. I would really appreciate if there is an easier way to do so without using the Perderabo's script.
Hi
I tried this date script https://www.unix.com/showthread.php?p=16559#post16559 but I am probably doing something wrong.

datecalc -a 2006 05 01 + 5

datecalc: Syntax error at line 207
If i look at line 207 i dont get it! But thats not surprising. ... (2 Replies)

LEARN ABOUT PHP
chgrp
CHGRP(3) 1 CHGRP(3)chgrp - Changes file groupSYNOPSIS
bool chgrp (string $filename, mixed $group)
DESCRIPTION
Attempts to change the group of the file $filename to $group.
Only the superuser may change the group of a file arbitrarily; other users may change the group of a file to any group of which that user
is a member.
PARAMETERS
o $filename
- Path to the file.
o $group
- A group name or number.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Changing a file's group
<?php
$filename = 'shared_file.txt';
$format = "%s's Group ID @ %s: %d
";
printf($format, $filename, date('r'), filegroup($filename));
chgrp($filename, 8);
clearstatcache(); // do not cache filegroup() results
printf($format, $filename, date('r'), filegroup($filename));
?>
NOTES
Note
This function will not work on remote files as the file to be examined must be accessible via the server's filesystem.
Note
When safe mode is enabled, PHP checks whether the files or directories being operated upon have the same UID (owner) as the script
that is being executed.
