Another format is:

dd/mm/yyyy
What do you notice about
the two formats?
dd/mm/yyyy
yyyy/mm/dd

What do you notice aboutThey always move from in

ascending or descending
the two formats?
order:

dd/mm/yyyy

yyyy/mm/dd

Dates=dd are smaller than a

month=mm which includes
many dates.
And year=yyyy is bigger
than months because a year
includes many months.
