    When creating a datetime object from, essentially, as string you need to use the strptime() function to parse the string. You must specify the value as a string (i.e. enclosed in apostrophes/quotes in your example above) and you must specify the format to be assumed when parsing the string.

    See the Python Documentation for details of using the strptime() function.
