24 hour format for Python timestamp

Question

Currently I'm creating timestamps with the Python time module. I created a string using this command

timestamp = time.strftime('%l:%M:%S') 

However, this prints the format in a 12 hours format. Is there a way I can do this in a 24 hours format so it would show up as 20:52:53 instead of 8:52:53?

Thanks!

Try

timestamp = time.strftime('%H:%M:%S')
