2Those "kind of times" are called "ISO8601" times, and they are standardized. Please do some reading on ISO8601 first, and afterwards you should easily find libraries that can handle ISO8601 times. – pepoluan Oct 15 '20 at 09:19

Neither of those two questions put forward to close this as a dupe actually show how to *parse* and ISO8601 string, they simply deal with creating one. Voting to re-open. – paxdiablo Oct 15 '20 at 09:34

<--date--> <-time-><zone>
This means 1am on October 12th, 2020, in the time zone 7 hours west of UTC (running through the middle of the US, basically).
It's actually one of the ISO8601 formats, used for date/time data interchange.
I believe the dateutil.parser() library can handle this in Python.
