In addition to %d there are also other items that support single digit though 
zero padding is mentioned with strptime as below in the context of strftime : 

>>> import datetime
>>> datetime.datetime.strptime("1/1/2018 1:1:1", "%d/%m/%Y %I:%M:%S")
datetime.datetime(2018, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1)


>>> datetime.datetime.strftime(datetime.datetime(year=2018, month=1, day=1, 
>>> hour=1, second=1, minute=1), "%d/%m/%Y %I:%M:%S")
'01/01/2018 01:01:01'

I couldn't find exact set of words that can be used to denote that zero padding 
is optional in strptime and it's returned as zero padded in strftime but if we 
are changing %d then I propose changing other items too with similar wording.

Thanks
