Re: [Tutor] Variable to String?

[Wayne Watson]

Title: Signature.html

Well, let me try this again. I'm only interested in time. The user sees a widget dialog that asks him to put the time in it in the format HH:MM:YY, so he enters 15:30:10, or, as before 15:00:00. The value gets back to the code I'm working in as 15:30:10 as the type in Subject. I need to write the value to a file as a string, "15:30:10". In fact, I want to write it as start_time=15:30:10 in a txt file. Ah, this was as simple as using str(time_value), where time_value was of the aforementioned type. That's Kent's [4], and looked tempting for its simplicity. Too simple, I guess for me to try. str() had a little more umph that I thought. I had played around with the datetime module some many months for many combos of date+time, and anticipated having to beat against it again.  Thankfully not here. :-) Good.

I've got a date time variable with, for example, 15:00:00 in hh:mm:ss format, and I'd like to make it a string. import datetime d = datetime.time(15,0) datetime.time(15, 0) d datetime.time(15, 0) str(d) '15:00:00' is this what you're looking for, or was there something else? -- wesley - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - "Core Python Programming", Prentice Hall, (c)2007,2001 "Python Fundamentals", Prentice Hall, (c)2009 http://corepython.com wesley.j.chun :: wescpy-at-gmail.com python training and technical consulting cyberweb.consulting : silicon valley, ca http://cyberwebconsulting.com -- Wayne Watson (Watson Adventures, Prop., Nevada City, CA) (121.01 Deg.
