In a movies database we have a movies table. It has the columns of id, title, date_released and genre. Write a query that returns the title first and the month and year it was released alias as month_year_released. Dates should look like "04/1983" for April 1983.
select title, strftime ("%m/%y") as month_year_released from movies

After the format string itself, you need a second argument (separate by a comma) with the name of the column to be processed.
Also, for a 4-digit year, the format should have a capital "Y"

This should be right. It looks like you forgot to put <time string> after the <date string>.
