Re: [Tutor] How Compute # of Days between Two Dates?

Mon, 01 Sep 2008 18:12:55 -0700

Title: Signature.html
How do I just get the current time? The following gives me 00:00:00.

import datetime

dt = datetime.time()
print "dt: ", dt

That's the question in Subject. For example, the difference between
08/29/2008 and 09/03/2008 is +5. The difference between 02/28/2008 and
03/03/2008 is 4, leap year--extra day in Feb. I'm really only interested in
years between, say, 1990 and 2050. In other words not some really strange
period of time well outside our current era of history.
    

You want the datetime module.

  
from datetime import datetime
datetime(2008,03,03) - datetime(2008,2,28)
        
datetime.timedelta(4)

          Interesting government experience prior to their presidency
          or bid for it:
             Abraham Lincoln: 2 years; George Washington: 0 years;
              Dwight Eisenhower: 0 years; James Buchanan: 29 years*
                 Barack Obama: 11 years; John McCain: 26 years
