Why does my Date object in Google Apps Script return NaN

Question

Does Google Apps Script use a funky version of EcmaScript that can\'t parse a date? How can I parse the date 2011-04-11T19:25:40Z into a JavaScript Date Object

Answer 1

Google apps script works fine when you use slashes instead of dashes. Like:

var date = new Date ('2017/12/26 9:55 am');
Logger.log(date);
