[New-bugs-announce] [issue22840] strpdate('20141110', '%Y%m%d%H%S') returns wrong date

[Doug Gorley]

New submission from Doug Gorley:

strptime() is returning the wrong date if I try to parse today's date (2014-11-10) as a string with no separators, and if I ask strpdate() to look for nonexistent hour and minute fields.

>>> datetime.datetime.strptime('20141110', '%Y%m%d').isoformat()
'2014-11-10T00:00:00'
>>> datetime.datetime.strptime('20141110', '%Y%m%d%H%M').isoformat()
'2014-01-01T01:00:00'
