Data from database Print (LC4.issue_d) 1 2014-12-01 00:00:00 2 2014-12-01 00:00:00 3 2014-12-01 00:00:00 4 2014-12-01 00:00:00 5 2014-12-01 00:00:00 ...
235625 2014-01-01 00:00:00 235626 2014-01-01 00:00:00 235627 2014-01-01 00:00:00 235628 2014-01-01 00:00:00 235629 2014-01-01 00:00:00 Name: issue_d, Length: 235629, dtype: object

I am trying to create an array called Month and let it be the month of the issued date; for example, for issue_d of December 1, 2014, it will return 12 to Month for the observation. The code I used:

import datetime as dt
Month = LC4.issue_d.dt.month
print (Month)

I kept getting the AttributeError: Can only use .dt accessor with datetimelike values

I am new to Python, I don't know where I got it wrong.

Thanks in advance!
