数据分析-Python

Question

Basically I am bored and making a program which can encode and decode data in txt files.

Given a partially randomly generated text which has several ways of representing dates, eg: '9 DECEMBER 19', '19 december 9', '19/9/12', '9 December 19', '12.9,19'... you get the idea. How would you convert all the dates present in the txt file to an ISO format (eg 2021-12-23). The execution of the code has to be relatively efficient given I could deal with a txt file of +25 000 lines.

Thanks in advance:)

You can use dateutil -

from dateutil import parser
parser.parse(line)
#inside a loop
