Pandas: Convert Timestamp to datetime.date

Question

I have a pandas column of Timestamp data

In [27]: train["Original_Quote_Date"][6] 

Out[27]: Timestamp('2013-12-25 00:00:00')

How can check equivalence of these objects to datetime.date objects of the type

datetime.date(2013, 12, 25)

Answer 1

Converting Timestamp to datetime.date using .date method::

t = pd.Timestamp('2013-12-25 00:00:00')

t.date()

datetime.date(2013, 12, 25)

t.date() == datetime.date(2013, 12, 25)

Output:

True
