+   Parse a string representing a time according to a format string.  The return
+   value is a :class:`struct_time` as returned by :func:`gmtime` or :func:`localtime`.
 
    The *format* parameter uses the same directives as those used by
    :func:`strftime`; it defaults to ``"%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y"`` which matches the
-   formatting returned by :func:`ctime`. If *string* cannot be parsed according
-   to *format*, or if it has excess data after parsing, :exc:`ValueError` is
-   raised. :exc:`ValueError` is raised if digits are not ASCII. The default
-   values used to fill in any missing data when more accurate values cannot be
-   inferred are ``(1900, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, -1)``. Both *string* and *format*
-   must be strings.
