       Each locale has a set of four default date and time formats.  They are distinguished by length, and are
       called "full", "long", "medium", and "short".  Each locale may have a different default length which it
       uses when its "$locale->date_format_default()", "$locale->time_format_default()", or
       "$locale->datetime_format_default()" methods are called.

       This can be changed by calling the "$locale->set_default_date_format()" or
       "$locale->set_default_time_format()" methods.  These methods accept a string which must be one of "full",
       "long", "medium", or "short".

Thismoduleisnolongerusedbythecodeinthedistribution. It is still included for the sake of any
       code out in the wild that may subclass this class.  This class will be removed in a future release.

       DateTime::Locale::Base - Base class for individual locale objects (deprecated)

       Most names come in a number of variations. First, they may vary based on length, with wide, abbreviated,
       and narrow forms. The wide form is typically the full name, while the narrow form is often a single
       character. The narrow forms may not be unique. For example, "T" may be used for Tuesday and Thursday in
       the English narrow forms.

       Many names also distinguish between "format" and "stand-alone" forms of a pattern. The format pattern is
       used when the thing in question is being placed into a larger string. The stand-alone form is used when
       displaying that item by itself, for example in a calendar.
