Convert column of serial dates (yyyy-mm-dd) to UK date format (Pythonic way)

Question

I am trying to convert a date of the format yyyy-mm-dd to dd/mm/yyyy and readable by Excel. I have tried:

df['Date'] = df['Date'].dt.strftime('%d/%m/%Y')

But get the following error:

AttributeError: Can only use .dt accessor with datetimelike values

Thanks!

首先，您必须将列转换为datetime ：

df['Date'] = pd.to_datetime(df['Date']).dt.strftime('%d/%m/%Y')
