UUID to Date Converter

A simple JavaScript function to convert UUIDv1 timestamps into human-readable dates. This function extracts the timestamp from a UUIDv1 and converts it into a standard date format.

Example Usage

console.log(UUID_to_Date('8bf1aeb8-6b5b-11e4-95c0-001dba68c1f2').toLocaleString());
// Expected output: "11/13/2014, 9:06:06 PM" (depends on locale)

How It Works

1. Extracts the timestamp from the first 60 bits of a UUIDv1.
2. Reorders the parts to match the correct timestamp format.
3. Converts it from 100-nanosecond intervals since 1582-10-15 to a standard Unix timestamp.
4. Returns a JavaScript Date object.
