 Write a class `DateFormatter` that has three private attributes:
 
-- `date`: the date to be formatted (as a date).
+- `date`: the date to be formatted (as a UNIX time in seconds).
 - `format`: the format to convert the date to.
 - `formattedDate`: contains the date converted into the given format.
 
 Create getters for all the attributes and setters for `date` and `format`. The conversion should happen when you set the `format` or the `date`. If the `format` is not correct, the conversion shouldn't happen. Additionally, create methods to output the date in the specified `format`, and constructors with only the `date`, with `date` and `format`, and a default constructor.
 
-#### The accepted date formats are:
+The default date is the current date, and the format as follow `DD/MM/YYYY`.
 
-- `DD/MM/YYYY`
-- `DD Month YYYY`
-- `DD.MM.YYYY`
