🌸 NAME 🌸

DateTime::Locale::st_LS — locale data examples for the Southern Sotho Lesotho (st-LS) locale 💖

(this is the DateTim...e::st_LS(3) page from User Contributed Perl Documentation, and yes the title got a little squished, we're surviving 💅)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this pod file is literally just a showcase — it's packed with examples of all the locale data you get for the Southern Sotho Lesotho locale. No cap, that's the whole vibe. Grab a snack, part 1 is long. 🍓

okay bestie, we're back and the pattern parade is still going strong 💅 first up, the tail end of that quarter pattern — the vibes are immaculate:

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 2008 Q1
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 1995 Q4
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = -10 Q3

next up is yw-count-other ('week' w 'of' Y) — it's literally the week number of the year, and the examples are giving:

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = week 6 of 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = week 51 of 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = week 37 of -10

Miscellaneous

quick vibe check on the miscellaneous deets:

Prefers 24 hour time? — No.
Local first day of the week — 1 (Mantaha).

Strftime Patterns

now the strftime patterns, which are basically the main characters of date formatting 🌟

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

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = Bed Kol  5 18:30:30 2008
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = Hla Tsh 22 09:05:02 1995
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Moq Leo 15 04:44:23 -10

%x (%m/%d/%y) — date format

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 02/05/08
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 12/22/95
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 09/15/10

%X (%H:%M:%S) — time format

          2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 18:30:30
          1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 09:05:02
         -0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 04:44:23
