Some other examples:

-module(df).

-export([s/0]).

s() ->
 Date = "2012/05/01",
 DateS=string:tokens(Date,"/"),
 io:format("~n~s~n", [rmz(DateS)]),
 io:format("~n~s~n", [rmz2(DateS)]).

rmz([Year, Month, Day]) ->
 Year++"/"++chopz(Month)++"/"++chopz(Day).

rmz2(Date) ->
 io_lib:format("~n~s/~s/~s~n", Date).

chopz("0"++Num) ->
 Num;
chopz(Num) ->
 Num.
