Year()
Returns the day of the month from a given date
Another way to say it...
Hey Coda, can you extract the day shown in this date?
Returns the month from a given date
Or, as one might say...
Hey Coda, can you extract the month shown in this date?
Returns the year from a given date
Said differently...
Hey Coda, can you extract the year shown in this date?


All three formulas use the same, single parameter.
