localtime function - date and time

  #  0    1    2     3     4    5     6     7     8
  ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) =
                                                localtime(time());

$sec and $min are 0..59, and $hour is 0..23.

$mday is 1..[28|29|30|31].

$mon is 0..11, so almost always ++$mon;.

$year is since 1900, so almost always $year+=1900;.

$wday is 0..6 (0=Sunday, 6=Saturday).

$yday is 0..[364|365], so almost always ++$yday;.
