The datetime module supplies classes for manipulating dates and times in both simple and complex ways
The datetime
object has a method for formatting date objects into readable strings.
The method is called strftime()
, and takes one parameter, format, to specify the format of the returned string:
import datetime x = datetime.datetime.now() print(x)
To disply the current date and time we must Import the datetime module :
2019-09-25 14:19:55.496410
The date contains year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and microsecond.
The datetime module has many other methods which returns information about the date object.
This example would return the year and name of weekday:
import datetime a = datetime.datetime.now() print(a.year) print(a.strftime("%B"))
