Given the format MM/YYYY write a regular expression that validates the string having date values between 01/0877 to 12/1115 (i.e. MM ranges between 01 to 12). Single digit values for MM have a leading 0 character. Note also that YYYY values under 1000 have a leading 0. Assume all months (MM) have 31 days. The RegExp must match the entire line given one value per line (i.e. assume you are reading a file).
Control structures
Control structures are block of statements that analyze the value of variables and determine the flow of execution based on those values. When a program is running, the CPU executes the code line by line. After sometime, the program reaches the point where it has to make a decision on whether it has to go to another part of the code or repeat execution of certain part of the code. These results affect the flow of the program's code and these are called control structures.
Switch Statement
The switch statement is a key feature that is used by the programmers a lot in the world of programming and coding, as well as in information technology in general. The switch statement is a selection control mechanism that allows the variable value to change the order of the individual statements in the software execution via search.
Given the format MM/YYYY write a regular expression that validates the string having date values between 01/0877 to
12/1115 (i.e. MM ranges between 01 to 12). Single digit values for MM have a leading 0 character. Note also that YYYY values
under 1000 have a leading 0. Assume all months (MM) have 31 days. The RegExp must match the entire line given one value per
line (i.e. assume you are reading a file).
