I am wrestling with a php 5.2.6 problem. An api we use returns dates in this format DDMMYYYYHHMM. Exactly that format, fixed length, no delimiters. However, in my experimentation, this format seems to break strptime, which returns a false (fail) when I feed it a date in this format. It can reproduced, at least on my system, with this exa...
I have a date input field that allows the user to enter in a date and I need to validate this input (I already have server side validation), but the trick is that the format is locale dependent. I already have a system for translating the strptime format string to the the user's preference and I would like to use this same format for val...
In my Django application I get times from a webservice, provided as a string, that I use in my templates:
{{date.string}}
This provides me with a date such as:
2009-06-11 17:02:09+0000
These are obviously a bit ugly, and I'd like to present them in a nice format to my users. Django has a great built in date formatter, which would do ...
I want to parse dates like these into a datetime object:
December 12th, 2008
January 1st, 2009
The following will work for the first date:
datetime.strptime("December 12th, 2008", "%B %dth, %Y")
but will fail for the second because of the suffix to the day number ('st'). So, is there an undocumented wildcard character in strptime...
I have a a date in strptime that I want to show as 'X hours ago'. I can happily convert hours into days and weeks etc. but I don't know how to do the initial sum. Here is how I'm converting the string into strptime:
time.strptime(obj.created_at, '%a %b %d %H:%M:%S +0000 %Y')
p.s. bonus points for figuring out why it won't take %z for ...
Specifically I have code that simplifies to this:
from datetime import datetime
date_string = '2009-11-29 03:17 PM'
format = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M %p'
my_date = datetime.strptime(date_string, format)
# This prints '2009-11-29 03:17 AM'
print my_date.strftime(format)
What gives? Does Python just ignore the period specifier when parsing date...
How do I use strptime or any other functions to parse timestamps with milliseconds in R?
> time[1]
[1] "2010-01-15 13:55:23.975"
> strptime(time[1], format="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f")
[1] NA
> strptime(time[1], format="%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
[1] "2010-01-15 13:55:23"`

I'm trying to convert a string "20091229050936" into "05:09 29 December 2009 (UTC)"
>>>import time
>>>s = time.strptime("20091229050936", "%Y%m%d%H%M%S")
>>>print s.strftime('%H:%M %d %B %Y (UTC)')
gives
AttributeError: 'time.struct_time' object has no attribute 'strftime'
clearly, I've made a mistake: time is wrong, it's a datetime ...
My input string is '16-MAR-2010 03:37:04' and i want to store it as datetime.
I am trying to use:
db_inst.HB_Create_Ship_Date = datetime.strptime(fields[7]," %d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S ")
fields[7] = '16-MAR-2010 03:37:04'
I am getting an error:

I have seen several questions with people asking about the same problem but none of the answers are helping me.

Consider the following birthdays (as dob):
1-Jun-68
1-Jun-69
When parsed with Python’s datetime.strptime(dob, '%d-%b-%y') will yield:
datetime.datetime(2068, 6, 1, 0, 0)
datetime.datetime(1969, 6, 1, 0, 0)
Well of course they’re supposed to be born in the same decade but now it’s not even in the same century!
According to the do...
I am trying to convert a date in a particular format using strptime, and i realized that the information about AM/PM is lost. Not sure why.
Here is the code.
struct tm t;
strptime("Wed 4/18/2007 4:28:22 PM", "%a %m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S %p", &t);
std::cout<<t.tm_hour<<endl;
strptime("Wed 4/18/2007 4:28:22 AM", "%a %m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S %p", &t);

Does anyone know how to parse the format as described in the title using Pythons strptime method?
I have something similar to this:
import datetime
date = datetime.datetime.strptime(entry.published.text, '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S.Z')
I can't seem to figure out what kind of timeformat this is. By the way, I'm a newbie at the Python langu...
Where can I find a list of all legal time names for R function as.POSIXct?
'as.POSIXct("1970-01-01",tz="CST")' will generate warning that "CST" (Central Standard Time) is unknown. Thanks
