Use a regular expression to validate the data format after recieving it from input.
my $social = <STDIN>;
chomp ($social);
if ($social =~ /^\d\d\d\-\d\d\-\d\d\d\d$) {
its good do somthing
}
else {
its not good do something
}
There are plenty of regular expression articles and tutorials on the internet.
