datetime — Basic dat 3.10 / datetime.ctime()

Return a string representing the date and time:

>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> datetime(2002, 12, 4, 20, 30, 40).ctime()
'Wed Dec  4 20:30:40 2002'

The output string will not include time zone information, regardless of whether the input is aware or naive.

d.ctime() is equivalent to:

time.ctime(time.mktime(d.timetuple()))

on platforms where the native C ctime() function (which time.ctime() invokes, but which datetime.ctime() does not invoke) conforms to the C standard.
