Converting a String to a Date in Swift

Question

I have date in string with format below code want to change in `Date` but i'm getting `nil` ``` let addedDate = "Tue, 25 May 2010 12:53:58 +0000" let formatter = DateFormatter() formatter.dateFormat = "dd MM YYYY" let date1 = formatter.date(from: addedDate) print("DATE \(date1)") ```

Accepted Answer

The date format needs to be for the string you are trying to convert, not the format you want back

so

```
formatter.dateFormat = "dd MM YYYY"
```

should be

```
formatter.dateFormat = "E, d MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Z"
```
