Assume all necessary packages are loaded.

Imagine we have a pandas dataframe called "Sales."

Within this data dataframe there is a column called "date$1".$

An inspection of that column reveals that date $1$ is not a object, but is reasonably formatted with dates like $"11/5/1955".$

Which code $($if any$)$ could help us change this column to a object?

$($recall that pandas can be loaded with and may also help.$)$

pandas has no functionality to create date fields

Sales $[\text{'}$date$1\text{'}]=$ makedates $[\text{'}$date$1\text{'}])$

Sales changetodateplease: 'datel'$]$ 'date$1\text{'}])$

Sales $[\text{'}$date$1\text{'}]=$ pd$.$to$\_$datetime$($dat$[\text{'}$date$1\text{'}])$
