timedate reformatting

Question

My Python script is currently writing out my date from the timedate module request as follows:

2019-08-28 14:56:52.559047

I want it to be converted to:

Aug 28

Did you try _anything_? It's a "datetime" not a "timedate" btw. Python has a `datetime` module exactly for this. — roganjosh, Aug 28 '19 at 21:11

You can use the datetime module.

>>> import datetime
>>> now = datetime.datetime.now()
>>> now.strftime("%b %d")
'Aug 28'

I'd suggest reading about the datetime module (official docs) and strftime.
