Help in string conversion

Hi all,
I need help in converting the strings. Below are the string formats.

If the string is DEC01/20, I want to convert it to 2020-12-01
If the string is OCT17/20-03, I want to remove the last -03 and convert it to 2020-10-17
If the string is MAR/19, I want to convert it to 2019-03-01

Thanks

Use substring method to extract data then if condition

the strings are interpretated as dates.
We rate a reformatting via datetime conversions more reliable as it can detect part info issues and throws validation exceptions, if it occurs. This reliable point we do lose with string based approach.

You can do following:
