Answer:
In Python:
txt = input("Date in MM/DD/YYYY format: ")
x = txt.split("/")
date=x[1]+"."
if(int(x[1])<10):
if not(x[1][0]=="0"):
date="0"+x[1]+"."
else:
date=x[1]+"."
if(int(x[0])<10):
if not(x[0][0]=="0"):
date+="0"+x[0]+"."+x[2]
else:
date+=x[0]+"."+x[2]
else:
date+=x[0]+"."+x[2]
print(date)
Explanation:
From the question, we understand that the input is in MM/DD/YYYY format and the output is in DD/MM/YYYY format/
The program explanation is as follows:
This prompts the user for date in MM/DD/YYYY format
txt = input("Date in MM/DD/YYYY format: ")
This splits the texts into units (MM, DD and YYYY)
x = txt.split("/")
This calculates the DD of the output
date=x[1]+"."
This checks if the DD is less than 10 (i..e 1 or 01 to 9 or 09)
if(int(x[1])<10):
If true, this checks if the first digit of DD is not 0.
if not(x[1][0]=="0"):
If true, the prefix 0 is added to DD
date="0"+x[1]+"."
else:
If otherwise, no 0 is added to DD
date=x[1]+"."
This checks if the MM is less than 10 (i..e 1 or 01 to 9 or 09)
if(int(x[0])<10):
If true, this checks if the first digit of MM is not 0.
if not(x[0][0]=="0"):
If true, the prefix 0 is added to MM and the full date is generated
date+="0"+x[0]+"."+x[2]
else:
If otherwise, no 0 is added to MM and the full date is generated
date+=x[0]+"."+x[2]
else:
If MM is greater than 10, no operation is carried out before the date is generated
date+=x[0]+"."+x[2]
This prints the new date
print(date)
