Challenge #21: Date Reformatting

Liked the Parse and rename based on numeric values. Is there a need for the original Date to be included in the output. I was thinking of not including, but solution already had it...

I converted the month/year into a date and formatted using %b rather than using an if statement to return the month name (although the if statement is probably simpler!)
