Python Q. How to parse an object index in a data frame into its date, time, and time zone?

The format is "YYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS-HH:MM" where the right "HH:MM" is the timezone.

Example: Midnight Jan 1st, 2020 in Mountain Time:

2020-01-01 00:00:00-07:00

I'm trying to convert this into seven columns in the data frame:

YYYY, MM, DD, HH, MM, SS, TZ

Use pd.to_datetime to parse a string column into a datetime array

datetimes = pd.to_datetime(column)

once you have this, you can access elements of the datetime object with the .dt datetime accessor:

final = pd.DataFrame({
    "year": datetimes.dt.year,
    "month": datetimes.dt.month,
    "day": datetimes.dt.day,
    "hour": datetimes.dt.hour,
    "minute": datetimes.dt.minute,
    "second": datetimes.dt.second,
    "timezone": datetimes.dt.tz,
})

See the pandas user guide section on date/time functionality for more info
