Change Date Order

How can I change the date from YY-MM-DD to MM-DD-YY. I know the sdk has some info concerning this but nothing showing the command (that I see).
Thanks

    Assuming date in raw string form:
    BrightScript Debugger> dateStr = "2014-11-4"
    BrightScript Debugger> arr = dateStr.tokenize("-")
    BrightScript Debugger> mm_dd_yy = arr[1] + "/" + arr[2] + "/" + arr[0]
    BrightScript Debugger> ? mm_dd_yy
    11/4/2014

    Thank you EnTerr.

    Mark,
    I was referring to changing the order in which a date is returned from a parse of of a file.
