Representing dates in different ways

date objects in Python have a great number of ways they can be printed out as strings. In some cases, you want to know the date in a clear, language-agnostic format. In other cases, you want something which can fit into a paragraph and flow naturally.

Let's try printing out the same date, August 26, 1992 (the day that Hurricane Andrew made landfall in Florida), in a number of different ways, to practice using the .strftime() method.

A date object called andrew has already been created.
