The default output format of to_csv()
is:
12/14/2012 12:00:00 AM
I cannot figure out how to output only the date part with specific format:
20121214
or date and time in two separate columns in the csv file:
20121214, 084530
The documentation is too brief to give me any clue as to how to do these. Can anyone help?
You could use strftime
to save these as separate columns:
df['date'] = df['datetime'].apply(lambda x: x.strftime('%d%m%Y'))
df['time'] = df['datetime'].apply(lambda x: x.strftime('%H%M%S'))
and then be specific about which columns to export to csv:
df[['date', 'time', ... ]].to_csv('df.csv')
