how to convert comma separated string to comma seperated int in python

Question

i'm trying to convert any timezone time to uk time. i'm getting the value error in the time_format variable.

from datetime import datetime
from pytz import timezone

newyork_tz = timezone('America/New_York')
london_tz = timezone('Europe/London')

it is in type string and when i'm trying to convert to int it is giving me this error

ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '2022, 02, 02, 21, 32, 25'

expecting out like below with type int

2022, 02, 02, 21, 28, 15

i'm new to python plz guide me with possible solution

That's not a string, it's a tuple. A string would have quotes around it. — Barmar

Also, your desired output 2022, 02, 02, 21, 28, 15 is not an int. Did you mean a list of ints? — j1-lee

Use strptime() to parse a datetime. It uses the same format string as strftime().

newyork = newyork_tz.localize(datetime.strptime(time_format, format))

thanks it worked for me. i'm getting output as 2022-02-03 02:57:02+00:00. but can I get only the hours and minutes. something like 02:57

You can format the output however you like, using newyork.strftime('%H:%M').

thank you very much. I really appreciate you help.
