Follow-up Comment #4, bug #43181 (project octave):
What I mean is for you to pass in the format string or template that you want
your date strings to be parsed, for example:
n = datenum ("26-jun-00 14:56:00", "dd-mmm-yy HH:MM:SS")
n = 7.3066e+05
This way you control the format that you are expecting to handle.
Also the way I read the paragraph in question, it applies to formats that do
have two-digit years, such as the built-in format "mm/dd/yy" or any custom
format that you might come up with. So it is not invalid, but most of the
built-in formats only parse four-digit years.
