Hey Catie, I have tried this process myself, everything works fine but only this one problem: how to deal with multi line strings in localizable.strings file? Simply treat it as single line string won’t work. ---

Thanks for these excellent videos. Any suggestions for handling dates and number formatting? Example: 01/11/2019 or 11/01/2019 1,000.00 or 1.000,00 etc ---

Have you looked into [DateFormatter](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/dateformatter) and [NumberFormatter](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/numberformatter)? They’re very powerful, partially due to their use of [Locale](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/locale), following with the topic of this screencast. This one, I’ve found to be especially helpful. It was new in iOS 10: [Apple Developer Documentation](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/iso8601dateformatter) ---

In this screencast, reference is made to another screencast which shows how to set up strings for localization. Could you provide a link to this screencast - would suggest putting it in the notes on the screencast page. A search of [RayWenderlich.com](http://RayWenderlich.com) is not bringing up anything. ---
