Answer 1

For Swift 3

func stringToDate(_ str: String)->Date{
    let formatter = DateFormatter()
    formatter.dateFormat="yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss Z"
    return formatter.date(from: str)!
}
func dateToString(_ str: Date)->String{
    var dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
    dateFormatter.timeStyle=DateFormatter.Style.short
    return dateFormatter.string(from: str)
}
