I have a date string and want to convert it to the date type:
I have tried to use datetime.datetime.strptime
with the format that I want but it is returning the time with the conversion.
when = alldates[int(daypos[0])]
print when, type(when)
then = datetime.datetime.strptime(when, '%Y-%m-%d')
print then, type(then)
This is what the output returns:
2013-05-07 <type 'str'>
2013-05-07 00:00:00 <type 'datetime.datetime'>
I need to remove the time: 00:00:00
.
