The datetime constructor takes up to 8 arguments, but the last 2 are microseconds and a tzinfo object, whereas timetuple's indexes 6 to 8 hold respectively the weekday, the yearday and a daylight saving flag (for mktime). So strptime and datetime are compatible on their first 6 values (return for strptime, input for datetime), hence the slicing of strptime's result to get only the first 6 values.
