Unparsable date exception

Question

I\'m currently working on some simple project in Java and I have date in the following string:

String dateString = \"Sun 7/14 03:44 AM 2013\";
         


        

Answer 1

I tried this out and the following worked,

        String stringDate = "Sun 7/14 03:44 AM 2013";
        DateFormat format = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE MM/dd hh:mm a yyyy");

        System.out.println("Parsed Date = "+format.parse(stringDate));

The output was as follows

Parsed Date = Sun Jul 14 03:44:00 BST 2013
