# Create A Date With The Date Sigil
|
|
|
|
Elixir 1.3 introduced a new sigil for creating dates, `~D`. It works in the
|
|
same way as Date's
|
|
[`new/3`](http://elixir-lang.org/docs/stable/elixir/Date.html#new/3)
|
|
function producing the Date struct with each of the date parts.
|
|
|
|
```elixir
|
|
> ~D[2016-01-01]
|
|
~D[2016-01-01]
|
|
> ~D[2016-01-01].year
|
|
2016
|
|
> ~D[2016-01-01].month
|
|
1
|
|
> ~D[2016-01-01].day
|
|
1
|
|
```
