On the bleach price screen, add functionality to convert a bleach date code (year + day of year) to a calendar date and show how long ago it was.

Quick and dirty
try
{
if ((tbDateCode.Text.Length == 5) && (Convert.ToInt16(tbDateCode.Text) >= 0))
{
int fourDigitYear = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Calendar.ToFourDigitYear(Convert.ToInt16(tbDateCode.Text.Substring(0, 2)));
DateTime DateCode = new DateTime(fourDigitYear, 1, 1).AddDays(Convert.ToInt16(tbDateCode.Text.Substring(2, 3)));
MessageBox.Show(DateCode.ToShortDateString());
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Invalid date code");
}
}
catch
{
MessageBox.Show("Invalid date code");
}
}
try
{
if ((tbDateCode.Text.Length == 5) && (Convert.ToInt16(tbDateCode.Text) >= 0))
{
int fourDigitYear = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Calendar.ToFourDigitYear(Convert.ToInt16(tbDateCode.Text.Substring(0, 2)));
DateTime DateCode = new DateTime(fourDigitYear, 1, 1).AddDays(Convert.ToInt16(tbDateCode.Text.Substring(2, 3)));
MessageBox.Show(DateCode.ToShortDateString());
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Invalid date code");
}
}
catch
{
MessageBox.Show("Invalid date code");
}
}
Not a bad idea, but that takes time and money...hint, hint.
I'm a paid member of the app.
Would like to second this idea. I would suggest putting it up in the Bleach $ Calculator section, or maybe put today's Julian date somewhere on the home screen of the app.
