What are different types of date/time formats?

ISO 8601

This is an international standard for representing dates and times. It has the format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS. For example, "2023-12-05T14:30:00".

Gregorian

Gregorian format varies based on region, but a common format is DD/MM/YYYY for European, or MM/DD/YYYY for American. For example, "05/12/2023" or "12/05/2023".
