It should work with `%j` according to the documentation: https://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.5.1/libdoc/time/rdoc/Time.html#method-c-strptime ~~~ ruby require "time" Time.strptime("2018-365", "%Y-%j") => 2018-01-01 00:00:00 +0100 ~~~ I expect `2018-12-31 00:00:00 +0100` It works using `DateTime`: ~~~ ruby require "date" DateTime.strptime("2018-365", "%Y-%j").to_time => 2018-12-31 00:00:00 +0000 ~~~ -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe: <mailto:ruby-core-request / ruby-lang.org?subject=unsubscribe> <http://lists.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/mailman/options/ruby-core>
