Need a script to increment date and time by 30 minutes
|

Hello,
I am trying to write a script to increment my time by 30 minutes for a period of 3 days. Currently I have tried installing DateTime without any success. I was wondering if there is an easier or more efficient way of writing this.
For example. I have a starting date and time such as this. 17/12/2012 00:00:00
I need increments of 30 minutes.. to output as the following.
17/12/2012 00:30:00
17/12/2012 01:00:00
.
.
.
17/12/2012 23:30:00
then start again with a new day.
18/12/2012 00:00:00
.
.
.
18/12/2012 23:30:00
And so on ... for 3 to 4 days.
This is what I have so far...
#!/usr/bin/perl
# This is a script that will increment time by 30 minutes.
use strict;
use warnings;
use POSIX qw/strftime/;
my $Start = "17/12/2012 00:00:00";
my $End = "20/12/2012 23:00:00";
my $Now = $Start;
while($Now > $End){
$Now = Some code that will add 30 minutes.
}
