File searching
i want to automate one task in unix and make one script.

There is directory in which everyday 2 files comes and that files come anytime in between 10 pm to 1 am.

file name is batm53_20131025_BARC5300001201310240000000200004233.221341696408

If u see filename has 3 part

1) batm53 which is constant
2) date when file arrive in directory
3) this part is BARC5300001201310170000000200004233.221341696408 in which BAR5300001 is constant and then after date of file . suppose today is 24th oct and file come after 1 am then second part of file name shows 25th oct but in third part after BAR5300001 it shows 24th oct date ( 20131024)

i am facing issue in this scenario

if file comes in between 10 pm to 12 am then i can make script easy with help of find command but i am facing issue in making that part how i can check if file comes after 12 am bceasue that file should be previous date and after 12 am date should change.

perl::critic::policy::valuesandexpressions::prohibitleadingzeros

Perl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitLeadUsereContributed PerlPerl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitLeadingZeros(3pm)

NAME

       Perl::Critic::Policy::ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitLeadingZeros - Write "oct(755)" instead of "0755".

AFFILIATION

       This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.

DESCRIPTION

       Perl interprets numbers with leading zeros as octal.  If that's what you really want, its better to use "oct" and make it obvious.

	   $var = 041;	   # not ok, actually 33
	   $var = oct(41); # ok

	   chmod 0644, $file;				   # ok by default
	   dbmopen %database, 'foo.db', 0600;		   # ok by default
	   mkdir $directory, 0755;			   # ok by default
	   sysopen $filehandle, $filename, O_RDWR, 0666;   # ok by default
	   umask 0002;					   # ok by default

CONFIGURATION

       If you want to ban all leading zeros, set "strict" to a true value in a .perlcriticrc file.

	   [ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitLeadingZeros]
	   strict = 1
