5       0001ee12f919a1b570658024bb59d118    2014-07

，我试着把year_month变成datetime。我用df1['month'] = pd.to_datetime(df1.month)但它返回ValueError: Unknown string format我怎么才能解决这个问题呢?

Answer 1

您需要传递一个格式字符串'%Y-%m'，因为to_datetime无法从您的字符串中推断出格式:

In [42]:
df['date'] = pd.to_datetime(df['month'], format='%Y-%m')
df
Out[42]:
                                 ID    month       date
0  0001ee12f919a1b570658024bb59d118  2014-02 2014-02-01
1  0001ee12f919a1b570658024bb59d118  2014-03 2014-03-01
2  0001ee12f919a1b570658024bb59d118  2014-04 2014-04-01
3  0001ee12f919a1b570658024bb59d118  2014-05 2014-05-01
4  0001ee12f919a1b570658024bb59d118  2014-06 2014-06-01
