+Note that this function expects normal calendar dates, meaning that months are 1-based (i.e. 1 = January).
+The <a href="output/Date.html#Date-defaults" ext:member="defaults" ext:cls="Date">defaults</a> hash will be used for any date value (i.e. year, month, day, hour, minute, second or millisecond)
+which cannot be found in the passed string. If a corresponding default date value has not been specified in the <a href="output/Date.html#Date-defaults" ext:member="defaults" ext:cls="Date">defaults</a> hash,
+the current date's year, month, day or DST-adjusted zero-hour time value will be used instead.
+Keep in mind that the input date string must precisely match the specified format string
+in order for the parse operation to be successful (failed parse operations return a null value).
