Python Create Date Object
Creating Date Objects
To create a date, we can use the datetime()
class (constructor) of the
datetime
module.
The datetime()
class requires three parameters to create a date: year,
month, day.
Example
Create a date object:
import datetime
x = datetime.datetime(2020, 5, 17)
print(x)

The datetime()
class also takes parameters for time and timezone (hour,
minute, second, microsecond, tzone), but they are optional, and has a default
value of 0
, (None
for timezone).
