I wasnt able to find a whole lot of discussions on different date format.
Is there a built in function that can read date format by locale setting?
There are dates that are formatted like
"YYYY-MM-DD", "DD-MM-YYYY" and it seems like these with "-" aren't liked by
parseFunction.

Would I just have to figure out what locale system setting is and try to
figure out the format to parse it in the "/" format?
