a dateformatter example with hour and minutes in swift

To create a DateFormatter example with hour and minutes in Swift, you can use the following code:

main.swift
let date = Date()

let dateFormatter = DateFormatter()
dateFormatter.dateFormat = "hh:mm a"

let formattedDate = dateFormatter.string(from: date)

print(formattedDate)
168 chars
9 lines

This will output the current time in hour and minute format, along with AM/PM indicator. The dateFormat property is set to "hh:mm a", where "hh" represents the hour in 12-hour format, "mm" represents the minutes, and "a" represents the AM/PM indicator.

Note that you can modify the dateFormat property to fit your specific formatting needs. For more information on date formatting patterns, you can refer to the Unicode Technical Standard #35 documentation.
