First I'll create the string:
Python 2.4 (#60, Nov 30 2004, 11:49:19) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
import time, datetime
a_date = datetime.date.today()
s = str(a_date)
print s 2005-02-04
Now I convert it back:
new_date = datetime.date.fromtimestamp( .... time.mktime(time.strptime(s, '%Y-%m-%d'))) new_date
datetime.date(2005, 2, 4)
WOW, that's ugly. Is there a more concise way to do this?
