title: Convert date format to insert into mysql db
body: <p>I have pandas column <code>row['date']</code> which contains date in format <code>11/05/2015</code>. I am trying to insert it into mysql db but having problems due to incorrect format of date field data. It has to be converted into <code>2015-11-05</code> in order to be inserted. Without storing the new value in variable how can I convert the date into required format?</p>
  
  <pre><code>Current format: 11/05/2015
  Required format: 2015-11-05
  </code></pre>
