converting epoch time to string (and vice versa)

[Astan Chee]

Hi,
I have a string in this format "DD/MM/YYY" for example:
tdate = "18/01/1990"
and Im trying to convert this to epoch time, can anyone help?
Im also trying to convert that epoch time to the string format
previously. Can anyone help this one too?
Thanks!

Read up on time.strftime() (_F_ormats a time to a string of various
styles) and time.strptime() (_P_arses a string of various formats into
a time).
