The operation cannot accept the arguments: ['08/10/2024']

[Rdhoy]

I'm trying to substract a date got from date selector and the current date. and I´m getting the message "the operation cannot accept the arguments: ['08/10/2024']". This means that the issue comes from the block related with the current date 8/10/2024. ¿can anyone help?

You were trying to multiply a piece of text describing a date by 1.
Why?

Study the Clock blocks and understand the difference among the 3 different ways to represent a date:

• milliseconds from 1970 (Clock1.SystemDateTime),
• Instant (internal Java object)
• Formatted Text
