Can't find a pattern for this date. Could anyone help me?
I know it's ISO 8601 standart.But everything I have found was without : between 03 and 00.
2018-01-18T08:40:00+03:00
How do I can parse this to Thu Jan 18 00:00:00 GMT+03:00 2018 to this 2018-01-18T08:40:00+03:00?
It looks like this W3C Datetime format is typically used for < lastmod > timestamps in XML.

I have a sensor log file with dates in the form Mon Nov 30 18:21:40 UTC 2020 that I'd like to convert to OpenRefine dates.
Per GREL Date Functions, I thought the correct transformation would be value.toDate('E M d H:m:s z y'), but I consistently get "Error: Unable to convert to a date".
I've tried simple things like replacing UTC with GMT, without success.
What clue am I missing?
That's a weird date format. I'm not sure why a sensor log wouldn't just use ISO 8601.
Try using value.toDate('EEE MMM d H:m:s Z y').
It's not super obvious from the docs that you need multiple characters, but if you look at the examples at the bottom of this page, you can see them used there.

I need to change the mailchimp locale *|DATE:M y|*. This gives Apr 2013 and I want Abr 2013 (Portuguese format). Is there any way to do this?
Thanks!
Have you tried wrapping the date with a translate merge tag?
*|TRANSLATE:PT|* *|DATE:M y|*
http://blog.mailchimp.com/automatically-translate-your-emails-to-over-30-languages/
The list of language codes can be found here:
http://kb.mailchimp.com/article/is-it-possible-to-translate-content-in-multiple-languages
But the Portugese options are:
Portuguese (Brazil) = pt
Portuguese (Portugal) = pt_PT
There you go
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'pt_PT');
echo strftime("%b %d %Y");
this will output
Abr 18 2013
To format dates in other languages, you need to use the setlocale() and strftime() functions
I would like to display a date like...
=Now.ToLongDateString()
BUT without the weekday. So the expression would produce June 21 2011. Not Tuesday, June 21 2011. Is this possible? I don't want the format MM/DD/YY. I would rather have June 21 2011.
I have found an expression that works. This is here for others to use.
=FORMAT(Now,"MMMM dd, yyyy")
I don't like answering my own questions because most here think its a reputation point thing (which its not) SO, If anyone else provides an answer that is more helpful or is "neater", I will toggle off my checkmark and mark yours. Otherwise, I'll leave this up so others can use the answer as per Meta.
I've read a many things about parsing date in obj-c, but I can't find anything dealing with dates like "Mon, 25 Apr 2011 11:53 am CDT"... I'd like to convert it to NSDate in a smart way but I'm running out of ideas.
Thanks.
-[NSDateFormatter dateFromString:]
You'd probably use #"EEE, d MMM yyyy hh:mm a zzz" as your date format string.
And by the way, googling "convert string to date objective-c" yields thousands of hits that have correct answers.
NSDateFormatter is a pretty complete class that covers all "human-friendly" date scenarios.

There's also several questions on stackoverflow that seem very similar to your question, so a quick search should help you out.
I'm successfully setting a date-picker with an initial date from a plist, but I see some unwanted blue values in the month, day, and year components, presumably corresponding to current date. So if today is April 18, 2010 and initial date being set is March 19, 2008, it looks like this (bold represents the blue):
January 17 2006
February 18 2007
------------------------------
March 19 2008
------------------------------
April 20 2009
May 21 2010
First question is: How do I get rid of the blue?
And second question: Ideally, how do I get it to look like this?
January 17 2006
February 18 2007
------------------------------
March 19 2008
------------------------------
April 20 2009
May 21 2010
Third question, totally unrelated and not as important: How could I have gotten the above to show in blue rather than bold? I see blue in code snippets all the time.

Sadly, I do not believe it's possible to suppress the coloring of the current date components in blue. You could always file a feature request for this functionality.
As a last resort, you could implement your own (or Google for "generic date picker" - someone has already done this).
I think the code sample formatter automagically makes things blue that it thinks are keywords, like:
UIDatePicker* myPicker;
I didn't tell it to make that blue, it just is.
