How can I display the current time as:

Python's time module provides a function for getting local time from the number of seconds elapsed since the epoch called localtime() .
First the quick and dirty way, and second the precise way (recognizing daylight's savings or not).
import time time.ctime() # 'Mon Oct 18 13:35:29 2010' time.strftime('%l:%M%p %Z on %b %d, %Y') # ' 1:36PM EDT on Oct 18, 2010' time.strftime('%l:%M%p %z on %b %d, %Y') # ' 1:36PM EST on Oct 18, 2010' All you need is in the documentation.
import time time.strftime('%X %x %Z') '16:08:12 05/08/03 AEST' If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
