<p>You don't need a hacky snippet to manipulate dates into the a specific moment, such as EOD. <code>datetime.datetime.combine</code> can do that for you as it receives three parameters: <code>date</code> (can be <code>datetime</code> too), <code>time</code> and <code>tzinfo</code> , the latter being an optional argument. The following snippet will put a given date into EOD:</p>
<p>```
from datetime import datetime, time</p>
<p>date = datetime.strptime("2019-01-01", "%Y-%m-%d") # datetime.datetime(2029, 1, 1, 0, 0)
eod_date = datetime.combine(date, time.max) # datetime.datetime(2029, 1, 1, 23, 59, 59, 999999)
```</p>
