How do I correctly use date2num for matplotlib?

Question

I am trying to make a graph that takes x and y from a log file. The x strings are datetimes (Y-MM-DD-H-M). Matplotlib needs to convert them with matplotlib.date
How do I use date2num correctly? What do I need as arguments?
Thanks in advanced
