Python is a great language for doing data analysis, primarily because of the fantastic ecosystem of data-centric python packages. Pandas is one of those packages and makes importing and analyzing data much easier.

Pandas Timestamp.date() function return a datetime object with same year, month and day as that of the given Timestamp object.

Syntax : Timestamp.date()
Parameters : None
Return : date

Example #1: Use Timestamp.date() function to return the date of the given Timestamp object as a datetime object.

# importing pandas as pd
import pandas as pd
  
# Create the Timestamp object
ts = pd.Timestamp(year = 2011,  month = 11, day = 21,
           hour = 10, second = 49, tz = 'US/Central')
  
# Print the Timestamp object
print(ts)

Output :

Now we will use the Timestamp.date() function to return the date as a datetime object.

# return as a datetime object 
ts.date()

Output :

As we can see in the output, the Timestamp.date() function has returned a datetime object containing the same year, month and day as that of the given Timestamp object.

ts.date()

Output :

As we can see in the output, the Timestamp.date() function has returned a datetime object containing the same year, month and day as that of the given Timestamp object.
