We have some legacy string dates that I need to convert to actual dates that can be used to perform some date logic. Converting to a date object isn't a problem if I knew what the format were! That is, some people wrote 'dd month yy', othes 'mon d, yyyy', etc.
So, I was wondering if anybody knew of a py module that attempts to guess date formats and rewrites them in a uniform way?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks! :)
