i need to modify the date output that i get to the format: yyyy/mm/dd

Example:

Input: Fri, 16 Nov 2018 08:46:20 +0100

Output: 2018/11/16

I've tried this code:

from datetime import datetime



datetime_object = datetime.strptime('Thu, 15 Nov 2018 15:41:36 +0100', '%b %d %Y %I:%M%p')



print(datetime_object)

But I'm getting the error ValueError: time data 'Thu, 15 Nov 2018' does not match format '%b, %d %M %Y'

Without the code that prints the date as Fri, 16 Nov 2018 08:46:20 +0100 we can't really help here. You normally format datetime objects with the datetime.strftime(), but we can't even be sure you are using datetime here.

Consistency issue: '%b %d %Y %I:%M%p' or '%b, %d %M %Y'? comma or not comma?
