Converting a string to a datetime
Briefly

To convert a string to a datetime object in Python, use the strptime class method. The challenge lies in determining the correct format string for parsing.
The strptime method, called on the datetime class, allows for parsing strings into datetime objects, but it's essential to get the format string right.
For quick format identification, consider using the strptime tool to simplify the process of finding the necessary format for your date strings.
If date strings vary significantly, explore the python-dateutil package's dateutil.parser.parse function for a more adaptable parsing solution.
