1 Answer

0 votes
import Foundation

func getLast30Dates() -> [String] {
    // Get today's date
    let today = Date()
    var dates: [String] = []

    // Create a calendar instance for date calculations
    let calendar = Calendar.current

    // Define the date formatter for full dates
    let formatter = DateFormatter()
    formatter.dateFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd"

    // Populate the array with the last 30 full dates
    for i in 0..<30 {
        if let pastDate = calendar.date(byAdding: .day, value: -i, to: today) {
            let formattedDate = formatter.string(from: pastDate) // Format the date as a string
            dates.append(formattedDate)
        }
    }

    return dates
}

let dates = getLast30Dates()

print("Dates:")
for date in dates {
    print(date)
}
