Answer 1

from datetime import datetime

date_str = '03FEB23'
date = datetime.strptime(date_str, '%d%b%y')
formatted_date = date.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')
print(formatted_date) # Output: 2023-02-03

Answer 2

In pyspark:

Try with to_date function with ddMMMyy format.

Examples:

select to_date('03MAR23','ddMMMyy')
--2023-03-03

Dataframe API:

df=spark.createDataFrame([["03MAR23"]],["dt"])
df.withColumn("dt1", to_date(col("dt"),"ddMMMyy")).show()
#+-------+----------+
#|     dt|       dt1|
#+-------+----------+
#|03MAR23|2023-03-03|
#+-------+----------+
