Suppose you have a list of dates in the proper format, like this:

2004-02-04
2003-11-02

and you encounter a date with only the month and year,
like May 2002. How would you insert that


Not. Prompt the user for a full date.


That is not strictly true.


It is what I would do, therefore it is a true answer to the question.

Then I misunderstood you. I took your answer to mean that you cannot store dates without the day part, rather than that your advice was not to do so. I accept your explanation that you meant the latter, but I don't think that's clear from your original wording.


Perhaps you read an accusatory tone in my choice of wording. That was not my intent, and for that I apologize.
