A couple of point about your code: 1. Don't use a bare 'except' because it'll catch _any_ exception. See what exception strptime will raise and catch only that.
I'm well aware of this, but I was too lazy to write something to generate the exception to find out what datetime would throw in this case. It crossed my mind when posting, but I was illustrating an idea rather than submitting usable code.
2. Why use 'continue' instead of 'pass'?
No reason. Does one have a benefit over the other? Tobiah -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
