New submission from Joshua Li: See my SO answer and the corresponding question for detail: https://stackoverflow.com/a/45602760/5348393
Essentially, given two datetime.datetime instances t1 and t2, the following two syntactically different lines of code should be logically equivalent, but in fact differ by plus or minus one hour on Daylight Savings Time dates because `datetime.datetime.__sub__` does not appear to take DST into account. `t1.timestamp()-t2.timestamp()` `(t1-t2).total_seconds()` I am not sure if this is by intentional design, or a behavioral bug. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 300035 nosy: JoshuaRLi priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: timedelta produced by datetime.__sub__ does not take Daylight Savings Time into account type: behavior versions: Python 3.3, Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31167> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
