Input: A list of valid dates in the current DMY or MDY mode.
Output: The same list, sorted into ascending historical order.
Note: Program must use current DMY/MDY format for input and leave that setting the same when it exits.

Example in MDY mode:
{ 8.191955 9.032017 7.041776 } --> { 7.041776 8.191955 9.032017 }

Winner: Smallest program in bytes.

Giving your age away there, Joe? Smile

Code:
<< DATE DUP ROT DDAYS SORT DATE+ >>
