如何将字符串转换为日期时间格式

Question

I'm trying to convert strings in a list to datetime format on Python. I am unable to use pd.DateTime at the moment. The imported datetime package doesn't seem to work. I'm new to this.

Please help.

Cheers.

Answer 1

You should consider using official datetime formats

Example:

from datetime import datetime

#datetime(year, month, day)
date = datetime(2018, 11, 28)


# datetime(year, month, day, hour, minute, second, microsecond)
date = datetime(2017, 11, 28, 23, 55, 59, 342380)

Answer 2

you can use strptime

from datetime import datetime, strptime

my_datetime_list = [strptime(string_date, '%y-%m-%d') for string_date in list_of_string_dates]
