Finance::Quote Description

Finance::Quote is a Perl module to get stock and mutual fund quotes from various exchanges. Finance::Quote is a Perl module to get stock and mutual fund quotes from various exchanges.SYNOPSIS use Finance::Quote; $q = Finance::Quote->new; $q->timeout(60); $conversion_rate = $q->currency("AUD","USD"); $q->set_currency("EUR"); # Return all info in Euros. $q->require_labels(qw/price date high low volume/); $q->failover(1); # Set failover support (on by default). %quotes = $q->fetch("nasdaq",@stocks); $hashref = $q->fetch("nyse",@stocks);This module gets stock quotes from various internet sources, including Yahoo! Finance, Fidelity Investments, and the Australian Stock Exchange. There are two methods of using this module -- a functional interface that is depreciated, and an object-orientated method that provides greater flexibility and stability.With the exception of straight currency exchange rates, all information is returned as a two-dimensional hash (or a reference to such a hash, if called in a scalar context). For example: %info = $q->fetch("australia","CML"); print "The price of CML is ".$info{"CML","price"};The first part of the hash (eg, "CML") is referred to as the stock. The second part (in this case, "price") is referred to as the label. Requirements: · Perl What's New in This Release: · IndiaMutual.pm : symbol not set in module.
