Im trying to convert a bunch of NSStrings into NSDate objects. Here is an example string:
2013-04-25T15:51:30.427+1.00
But I can't figure out what format it is in, so far I have (The question marks are the bits I'm stumped with):
yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss????zzz
The main problem I'm having is with the '.427' part although if I'm making a mistake elsewhere, let me know :)
Does anyone have any ideas? Or could point me to a list of all the possible date format specifiers? I found this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8kb3ddd4.aspx which is useful but it doesn't appear to have any specifier for the '.427' part that I'm stuck on.
Any help is appreciated, Thanks.

The DateFormat class in Java is used for formatting dates. A specified date can be formatted into the Data/Time string. For example, a date can be formatted into: mm/dd/yyyy. Date Format classes are not synchronized.
ISO 8601 specifies a format of YYYY-MM-DD.
YYYY/MMM/DD. Four-digit year, separator, three-letter abbreviation of the month, separator, two-digit day (example: 2003/JUL/25) DD/MMM/YYYY. Two-digit day, separator, three-letter abbreviation of the month, separator, four-digit year (example: 25/JUL/2003)
The proper format is yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZZZZZ.
See Unicode Date Format Patterns.
Also, the ZZZZZ format for the +00:00 timezone format was added to iOS 6 and is not supported under iOS 5 or earlier.
