how set column as date index?
<p>My data sets looks like:</p>
<pre><code>Date        Value
1/1/1988    0.62
1/2/1988    0.64
1/3/1988    0.65
1/4/1988    0.66
1/5/1988    0.67
1/6/1988    0.66
1/7/1988    0.64
1/8/1988    0.66
1/9/1988    0.65
1/10/1988   0.65
1/11/1988   0.64
1/12/1988   0.66
1/13/1988   0.67
1/14/1988   0.66
1/15/1988   0.65
1/16/1988   0.64
1/17/1988   0.62
1/18/1988   0.64
1/19/1988   0.62
1/20/1988   0.62
1/21/1988   0.64
1/22/1988   0.62
1/23/1988   0.60
</code></pre>
<p>I used this code to read this data:</p>
<pre><code>df.set_index(df['Date'], drop=False, append=False, inplace=False, verify_integrity=False).drop('Date', 1)
</code></pre>
<p>But the problem is the index is not in date format. So the question is how to set this column as date index?</p>
