Treehouse TeacherHi there, Talon Ward! I'd sort of love to know what you've tried. The challenge is asking us to get the title
and the date_released
but it wants that date_released
in the format of month/year (excluding the day). Then we need to alias that as month_year_released
. In this challenge, we are not concerned with the day.
This was my solution:
SELECT title, STRFTIME('%m/%Y', date_released) AS month_year_released FROM movies;
To use the STRFTIME
function you need to pass in the format and then the field you're trying to format, which is what I've done above.
Hope this helps!
