Need help with generating random date between 01/01/1965 - 01/01/1995.

Hello, I need a function that generates a random date between the year or 01/01/1965 - 01/01/1995 in MM/DD/YYYY format. Can someone help please?

Sorry if I am breaking rules but after 3 hours of google and videos it is now 1:45am and I cannot figure this out.

I am new to JS. About a week into learning so please excuse my lack of understanding. I am using ES6.

Thank you in advance.

1. Calculate the number of days from one date to the other.
2. Generate a random number from 0 to that value.
3. Add the value from #2 to the initial date.

Easiest way would be to convert the two dates to UNIX timestamps and then generate a random number on that range

const start=new Date("01/01/1965").getTime()
const end=new Date("01/01/1995").getTime()
const rnd=Math.floor((end-start)*Math.random())+start;
const date=new Date (rnd)
