How do I turn a python datetime into a string, with readable format date?

Question

t = e['updated_parsed']
dt = datetime.datetime(t[0],t[1],t[2],t[3],t[4],t[5],t[6]
print dt
>>>2010-01-28 08:39:49.000003

Read this: http://docs.python.org/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.strftime

Answer 2

The datetime class has a method strftime. strftime() Behavior in the Python docs documents the different formats it accepts.

For this specific example, it would look something like:

my_datetime.strftime("%B %d, %Y")
