My objective is to have a lists of times (in seconds), already packaged in lists of times in 5 minutes for a whole day.
This is my code to package the whole day of "2016-07-08" by 5 minutes :

```
pd.date_range('2016-07-08 00:00:00', '2016-07-08 23:59:00', freq='5Min')

```

The result :

```
DatetimeIndex(['2016-07-08 00:00:00', '2016-07-08 00:05:00',
           '2016-07-08 00:10:00', '2016-07-08 00:15:00',
           '2016-07-08 00:20:00', '2016-07-08 00:25:00',
           '2016-07-08 00:30:00', '2016-07-08 00:35:00',
           '2016-07-08 00:40:00', '2016-07-08 00:45:00',
           ...
           '2016-07-08 23:10:00', '2016-07-08 23:15:00',
           '2016-07-08 23:20:00', '2016-07-08 23:25:00',
           '2016-07-08 23:30:00', '2016-07-08 23:35:00',
           '2016-07-08 23:40:00', '2016-07-08 23:45:00',
           '2016-07-08 23:50:00', '2016-07-08 23:55:00'],
          dtype='datetime64[ns]', length=288, freq='5T')

```

And this is the code to have all times (by second) included in every 5 minutes:

```
for time in pd.date_range('2016-07-08 00:00:00', '2016-07-08 23:59:00', freq='5Min').tolist():    
    time_by_5_min = datetime.datetime.strftime(time.to_datetime(), "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
    print pd.date_range(time_by_5_min, freq='S', periods=60)

```

The result :

```

          dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq='S')
etc

```

This is perfect for me!
I want now to have lists, not a pandas.tseries.index.DatetimeIndex..
The .tolist() method give this :

```
for time in pd.date_range('2016-07-08 00:00:00', '2016-07-08 23:59:00', freq='5Min').tolist():    
    time_by_5_min = datetime.datetime.strftime(time.to_datetime(), "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
    print (pd.date_range(time_by_5_min, freq='S', periods=60)).tolist()

```

The result :

```
[Timestamp('2016-07-08 00:00:00', offset='S'), Timestamp('2016-07-08 00:00:01', offset='S'), Timestamp('2016-07-08 00:00:02', offset='S'), Timestamp('2016-07-08 00:00:03', offset='S'), Timestamp('2016-07-08 00:00:04', offset='S'), Timestamp('2016-07-08 00:00:05', offset='S'), Timestamp('2016-07-08 00:00:06', offset='S'), etc]

```

I want to have something like this :

```

Any ideas ?
