DateTime also provides methods for calendar operations, date and time arithmetic and formatting. DateTime objects represent instants in time and provide interfaces for controlling its representation without affecting the absolute value of the object. DateTime objects may be created from a wide variety of string or numeric data, or may be computed from other DateTime objects. DateTimes support the ability to convert their representations to many major timezones, as well as the ability to create a DateTime object in the context of a given timezone. DateTime objects provide partial numerical behavior: - Two date-time objects can be subtracted to obtain a time, in days between the two. - A date-time object and a positive or negative number may be added to obtain a new date-time object that is the given number of days later than the input date-time object. - A positive or negative number and a date-time object may be added to obtain a new date-time object that is the given number of days later than the input date-time object. - A positive or negative number may be subtracted from a date-time object to obtain a new date-time object that is the given number of days earlier than the input date-time object. DateTime objects may be converted to integer, long, or float numbers of days since January 1, 1901, using the standard int, long, and float functions (Compatibility Note: int, long and float return the number of days since 1901 in GMT rather than local machine timezone). DateTime objects also provide access to their value in a float format usable with the python time module, provided that the value of the object falls in the range of the epoch-based time module. A DateTime object should be considered immutable; all conversion and numeric operations return a new DateTime object rather than modify the current object. Return a new date-time object A DateTime object always maintains its value as an absolute UTC time, and is represented in the context of some timezone based on the arguments used to create the object. A DateTime object's methods return values based on the timezone context. Note that in all cases the local machine timezone is used for representation if no timezone is specified. DateTimes may be created with from zero to seven arguments. - If the function is called with no arguments, then the current date/time is returned, represented in the timezone of the local machine. - If the function is invoked with a single string argument which is a recognized timezone name, an object representing the current time is returned, represented in the specified timezone. - If the function is invoked with a single string argument representing a valid date/time, an object representing that date/time will be returned. As a general rule, any date-time representation that is recognized and unambiguous to a resident of North America is acceptable.(The reason for this qualification is that in North America, a date like: 2/1/1994 is interpreted as February 1, 1994, while in some parts of the world, it is interpreted as January 2, 1994.) A date/time string consists of two components, a date component and an optional time component, separated by one or more spaces. If the time component is omitted, 12:00am is assumed. Any recognized timezone name specified as the final element of the date/time string will be used for computing the date/time value. (If you create a DateTime with the string 'Mar 9, 1997 1:45pm US/Pacific', the value will essentially be the same as if you had captured time.time() at the specified date and time on a machine in that timezone):: e=DateTime("US/Eastern") # returns current date/time, represented in US/Eastern. x=DateTime("1997/3/9 1:45pm") # returns specified time, represented in local machine zone. y=DateTime("Mar 9, 1997 13:45:00") # y is equal to x The date component consists of year, month, and day values. The year value must be a one-, two-, or four-digit integer. If a one- or two-digit year is used, the year is assumed to be in the twentieth century. The month may an integer, from 1 to 12, a month name, or a month abbreviation, where a period may optionally follow the abbreviation. The day must be an integer from 1 to the number of days in the month. The year, month, and day values may be separated by periods, hyphens, forward, slashes, or spaces. Extra spaces are permitted around the delimiters. Year, month, and day values may be given in any order as long as it is possible to distinguish the components. If all three components are numbers that are less than 13, then a a month-day-year ordering is assumed. The time component consists of hour, minute, and second values separated by colons. The hour value must be an integer between 0 and 23 inclusively. The minute value must be an integer between 0 and 59 inclusively. The second value may be an integer value between 0 and 59.999 inclusively. The second value or both the minute and second values may be omitted. The time may be followed by am or pm in upper or lower case, in which case a 12-hour clock is assumed. - If the DateTime function is invoked with a single Numeric argument, the number is assumed to be a floating point value such as that returned by time.time(). A DateTime object is returned that represents the gmt value of the time.time() float represented in the local machine's timezone. - If the function is invoked with two numeric arguments, then the first is taken to be an integer year and the second argument is taken to be an offset in days from the beginning of the year, in the context of the local machine timezone. The date-time value returned is the given offset number of days from the beginning of the given year, represented in the timezone of the local machine. The offset may be positive or negative. Two-digit years are assumed to be in the twentieth century. - If the function is invoked with two arguments, the first a float representing a number of seconds past the epoch in gmt (such as those returned by time.time()) and the second a string naming a recognized timezone, a DateTime with a value of that gmt time will be returned, represented in the given timezone.:: import time t=time.time() now_east=DateTime(t,'US/Eastern') # Time t represented as US/Eastern now_west=DateTime(t,'US/Pacific') # Time t represented as US/Pacific # now_east == now_west # only their representations are different - If the function is invoked with three or more numeric arguments, then the first is taken to be an integer year, the second is taken to be an integer month, and the third is taken to be an integer day. If the combination of values is not valid, then a DateTimeError is raised. Two-digit years are assumed to be in the twentieth century. The fourth, fifth, and sixth arguments specify a time in hours, minutes, and seconds; hours and minutes should be positive integers and seconds is a positive floating point value, all of these default to zero if not given. An optional string may be given as the final argument to indicate timezone (the effect of this is as if you had taken the value of time.time() at that time on a machine in the specified timezone). If a string argument passed to the DateTime constructor cannot be parsed, it will raise DateTime.SyntaxError. Invalid date, time, or timezone components will raise a DateTime.DateTimeError. The module function Timezones() will return a list of the timezones recognized by the DateTime module. Recognition of timezone names is case-insensitive.
