datetime.strptime() not padding 0's

[Rodrick Brown]

I thought I read some where that strptime() will pad 0's for day's for some
reason this isnt working for me and I'm wondering if i'm doing something
wrong.

How can I get strptime to run 09? instead of 9

dt.day is just an integer. If you want to print it with zero padding,
use a format string:
09

or for python 3:09
