Dates.
A date is represented as either a floating point value or "datetime". So far so good.
I set the date to 0, and the resulting datetime representation was null. Hmmmm.
I set it to 1, and the datetime was 31 Dec 1899. Well, okay... I guess.
The real adventure starts when you try to find the absolute max datetime that can be represented. There is no documentation that I could find that says what this value is, and I think I know why.
That value is 313740917827896, or 31 Dec 4294967295.
If you add 1 to the numeric value, the represented datetime becomes 01 Jan 0000.
If you continue adding, you can go all the way to 313740918558381, which gives you a datetime of 31 Dec 1999.
If you add 1 to that value, it finally overflows into something that evidently cannot be interpreted as a date.
If you really want a laugh, I changed that absolute max value to a negative number, and I got a datetime of 4294967292 Jan 1900. Yes, that first number is the DAY. Curiously, it's almost the same value as the max possible year (before it wraps around).
I don't know whether to laugh or cry...

January 1900 was clearly a very long month.
Where were you on 42884th Jan 1900?

So I was texting this cute girl when she asked me "What's your perfect date?"
I said "dd-MM-yyyy, anything else is just confusing."
She never texted back 
|
|
|
|
|
She probably was used to MM/dd/yyyy and didn't want to confuse you even more

All of you are wrong, yyyy-mm-dd is objectively the best format.

No it's not, why start with a number that only changes once in a millenium?
The least you could do is stick that somewhere in the middle!
Start with the day, however, and you'll probably never have to read past the first two digits

I don't understand why you're so in love with numbers. Nothing beats localized text so better to use "dddd d MMMM yy". It's just so readable and drops the unnecessary century. We're all at the same millennia here, right?

Great idea, that is now the default format in all my applications

Because its sortable as text. That's basically the whole point with making it THE standard. ISO 8601 - Wikipedia[^]

Real men sort on substrings! 
And the really very manly men sort Wendelius' format 
|
|
|
|
|
That format is the most sortable.

It also conforms to ISO 8601.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I can understand exploring the min value boundaries but extending your research to those lengths is just cruel. I obviously dodged a bullet when I delegated that particular load if crap to another developer.

I'm not sure how something in C# is applicable to the sh|t stain we all know as Qlikview.

Just me assuming you were using it via an interface

Qlikview is a stand-alone app with no support for plug-ins, or even real coding talent, although it requires one to be able to figure out workarounds for their arbitrary restrictions, numerous limitations, and bugs that they prefer to call "nuances".
As a programmer, Qlikview's "programming" features are an affront to my developer sensibilities. If anyone on the planet was in danger of having physical harm inflicted on them from a carefully aimed shot, it's the sub-humans that invented Qlikview.

Thank you for making the mess I code in seem reasonable.

You ever try to determine which version of .NET is installed on a machine?
It's almost funny.
How to: Determine Which .NET Framework Versions Are Installed[^]
I was able to use LINQPad and add all the scripts from that article to test the machine I needed to know about.
You might think there is a Microsoft Utility to do this?
In the .NET SDK maybe? no.
Installed with Visual Studio maybe? No.
An interesting gap.
I guess we just figure the user will keep on downloading .NET Redistributables until the app works? 
EDIT
Here's what the script lists on my machine -- which seems to be correct:
v2.0.50727 2.0.50727.4927 SP2
v3.0 3.0.30729.4926 SP2
v3.5 3.5.30729.4926 SP1
v4
Client 4.6.01586
Full 4.6.01586
v4.0
Client 4.0.0.0
.NET Framework Version: 4.6.2
