My dataframe has a DOB
column (example format 1/1/2016
) which by default gets converted to Pandas dtype ‘object’.
Converting this to date format with df['DOB'] = pd.to_datetime(df['DOB'])
, the date gets converted to: 2016-01-26
and its dtype
is: datetime64[ns]
.
Now I want to convert this date format to 01/26/2016
or any other general date format. How do I do it?
(Whatever the method I try, it always shows the date in 2016-01-26
format.)
