My python is throwing an assertion error when converting a date in string format to a datetime format. This is being used in 'read_csv" as a converter.
For example my data looks like this: "01-SEP-18 01.30.30.000000 AM"
As far as I can tell the format should be the below. This is not my exact code, but I included the string rather than expressing my converter. I am aware that to_datetime is relatively smart and tried without a format only to receive a similar/same error.
pn.to_datetime('01-SEP-18 01.30.30.000000 AM','%d-%b-%y %I.%M.%S.%f %p')
pn.to_datetime('01-SEP-18 01.30.30.000000 AM')
Traceback (most recent call last):

import pandas as pd
pd.to_datetime('01-SEP-18 01.30.30.000000 AM',format='%d-%b-%y %I.%M.%S.%f %p')
You're right there - the format you pass isn't an argument, but a keyword argument, so it needs to be specified as the format. This should get the result you need (assuming pandas is imported as pn):
pn.to_datetime('01-SEP-18 01.30.30.000000 AM', format='%d-%b-%y %I.%M.%S.%f %p')
