I assume I have import datetime before running each of the lines of code below  datetime datetime strptime  2013-1-25     Y- m- d   strftime   m  d  y     prints  01 25 13    If you can t live with the leading zero  try this   dt   datetime datetime strptime  2013-1-25     Y- m- d   print   0   1   2 02   format dt month  dt day  dt year   100    This prints  1 25 13    EDIT  This may not work on every platform   datetime datetime strptime  2013-1-25     Y- m- d   strftime   m  d  y

If you can live with 01 for January instead of 1  then try     d   datetime datetime strptime  2013-1-25     Y- m- d   print datetime date strftime d    m  d  y     You can check the docs for other formatting directives
