Thank you for your efforts on the formatDate function! While your code meets many of the task requirements, there are a few critical issues that need to be addressed to ensure it functions correctly across all scenarios.
-
Separator Handling: The assumption that the date separator is always at index 3 of the format arrays is not universally applicable. This could lead to incorrect date formatting for certain inputs. Consider implementing a more flexible approach to determine the separator dynamically.
-
Century Logic: The current logic for determining the century based on two-digit years is not robust. The assumptions made (e.g., years >= 30 belong to the 20th century) may not hold true for all cases and could lead to incorrect results. Revisiting this logic to ensure it accurately reflects the intended century would be beneficial.
-
Year Length Check: The condition checking if a year is a two-digit year using
splitDate[i] < 2000is incorrect, assplitDate[i]is a string. It would be more appropriate to check the length of the string or the value directly.
Addressing these issues will enhance the reliability and accuracy of your function. Keep up the great work, and I'm confident you'll nail it with these adjustments! 😊

The assumption that the date separator is always at index 3 of the fromFormat array may not be valid for all date formats. Consider dynamically determining the separator based on the format string.

The condition splitDate[i] < 2000 is incorrect for checking if a year is a two-digit year. This should be checking the length of the string or the value directly, as splitDate[i] is a string.

The condition splitDate[i] < 30 assumes that any two-digit year less than 30 belongs to the 21st century. This logic might not be universally applicable and could lead to incorrect results for dates intended to be in the 20th century.

The condition splitDate[i] >= 30 assumes that any two-digit year 30 or greater belongs to the 20th century. This logic might not be universally applicable and could lead to incorrect results for dates intended to be in the 21st century.

The use of newToFormat[3] as the separator for joining the date components assumes the separator is at index 3, which may not be correct for all formats. Consider using a more flexible approach to determine the separator.
