How can I find out the year of the file

megamala

How can I find out the file(unix) created year using perl. If I do ls -l then , it is not displaying the year of the file. Is there any using perl module we can find out the file created year.

TIA

Take a look at the documentation on the "stat" function:

http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.6.1/pod/func/stat.html

And the documentation on the "localtime" function:
