💅 NAME

Okay bestie, so DateTime::Locale::cop(3) — that's a User Contributed Perl Documentation page, and it is literally the locale data examples for the Coptic (cop) locale. Like, this whole page is just receipts. ✨

🫶 Heads up: it's giving "very long", so this is part 1. Keep scrolling energy.

🌸 DESCRIPTION

This pod file is a whole showcase, okay? It's got examples of all the locale data you can get for the Coptic locale. Nothing scary, just a very thorough flex. 💖

💀 Not the months being M01 through M12 and the narrow ones just being 1 through 12. It's giving minimal effort but honestly? Iconic. 👑

🦋 Miscellaneous 🦋

Prefers 24 hour time?

Yes — she's a 24-hour girlie, no am/pm chaos here 💅

Local first day of the week

1 (Mon) — Monday is the main character of this week, no cap 👑

🔥 Strftime Patterns 🔥

These are the classic strftime-style formats, bestie — the OGs that the locale has opinions about. Every one gets the same three-date vibe check so you can see exactly what comes out 👇

`%c (%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y)` — date time format ⭐

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Tue M02  5 18:30:30 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Fri M12 22 09:05:02 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat M09 15 04:44:23 -10

Bestie look closely at that first line — there's M02 then two spaces before the 5. That's literally how it's rendered, fr fr. Don't "fix" it 🙈
