Initialize Datetime from String

Question

I have strings like this Wed Mar 18 19:24:07 +0000 2020

I guess it should be ,,,

%a %b %d %X %z %Y

However , how can I put this in python datetime class??

You can use `strptime()`. – Code-Apprentice Mar 18 '20 at 19:29 — Code-Apprentice, Mar 18 '20 at 19:29

value = "Wed Mar 18 19:24:07 +0000 2020"
d = datetime.strptime(value, "%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %z %Y")
print(d)  # 2020-03-18 19:24:07+00:00

Use strptime() to parse the string as a datetime object.
