> I have a file with dates formatted like this: 5/7/10 2:11 for the date 2010-5-7 and the time 2:11 am. I’m having the hardest time getting that read in properly. I’m trying something like CSV.read("Data.csv", dateformat=dateformat"m/d/yy H:M"), but my dates are all formatted like this: 0010-5-7. I have two questions about this: a) What happened to the yy formatting in Julia 1.0? Am I mis-remembering this from Python? b) How can I read this data in with the right dates? Many thanks for any …
