The docstring for strftime is:
    ```def strftime(self, fmt):
        "Format using strftime()."
    ```

And that of strptime:
    ````def strptime(cls, date_string, format):
        'string, format -> new datetime parsed from a string (like time.strptime()).'
    ````

I feel like both could use a better explanation for users who will access them using >>> help(datetime.strftime) and users using IDEs that provide doc-strings on-hover over a function.
