Question

This might be a silly question, but I can\'t seem to find the answer on here or in the documentation.

You can parse an NSString into an NSDate using the NSDateFormatter class. See the documentation for more info:

Instances of NSDateFormatter create string representations of NSDate (and NSCalendarDate) objects, and convert textual representations of dates and times into NSDate objects.
