+
+The **`.strptime()`** is a method included in the `datetime` module. It is used to parse a string representing a date and/or time and convert it into a `datetime` object using a specified format.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```python
+from datetime import datetime
+
+datetime.strptime(date_string, format)
+```
+
+### Parameters:
+
+- `date_string` (str): The string representing the date and/or time.
+- `format` (str): The format that defines the structure of `date_string`. This uses the directives from the `datetime` module (e.g., `%Y` for a four-digit year, `%m` for a two-digit month).
+
+### Returns:
+
+- A `datetime` object corresponding to the parsed date and time.
+
+## Codebyte Example
+
+```codebyte/python
+from datetime import datetime
+
+# Define the date-time string and format
+datetime_string = "27/12/2024 15:30:00"
+datetime_format = "%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S"
+
+# Parse the string into a datetime object
+dt_object = datetime.strptime(datetime_string, datetime_format)
+
+print(dt_object)  # Output: 2024-12-27 15:30:00
+```
