Notes:

(1)
The ``%f`` format directive only applies to :func:`strptime`,
not to :func:`strftime`. However, see also :meth:`datetime.datetime.strptime` and
:meth:`datetime.datetime.strftime` where the ``%f`` format directive
:ref:`applies to microseconds <format-codes>`.

(2)
When used with the :func:`strptime` function, the ``%p`` directive only affects
the output hour field if the ``%I`` directive is used to parse the hour.

.. _leap-second:

(2)
(3)
The range really is ``0`` to ``61``; value ``60`` is valid in
timestamps representing `leap seconds`_ and value ``61`` is supported
for historical reasons.

(3)
(4)
When used with the :func:`strptime` function, ``%U`` and ``%W`` are only used in
calculations when the day of the week and the year are specified.
