Alexander Belopolsky added the comment: For future reference, here is the example showing %Y %V ambiguity:
>>> date(2013,12,31).strftime('%Y %V %u') '2013 01 2' >>> date(2013,1,1).strftime('%Y %V %u') '2013 01 2' which is resolved by using %G >>> date(2013,12,31).strftime('%G %V %u') '2014 01 2' >>> date(2013,1,1).strftime('%G %V %u') '2013 01 2' In other words, '2013 01 2' cannot be unambiguously parsed using '%Y %V %u' format. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12006> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
