I am trying to specify a date range in Python that begins on the day before the current day. However, I would like that date range to begin at 10:00:00.
This is the code I am currently using
import pandas as pd
import datetime as dt
date = dt.datetime.today() - dt.timedelta(days=1)
date_range = pd.date_range(date, freq='60min', periods=24)
However, this begins at 00:00:00. I have tried a few ways of amending the above code to get it to start at 10:00:00, but none work. Can anyone help?
To clarify: I am using Pandas because this date range is to be used as the index for a dataframe.
You can construct another datetime but use just the day, month, year components and offset again:
In [87]:
date = dt.datetime.today() - dt.timedelta(days=1)
date = dt.datetime(date.year, date.month, date.day) + dt.timedelta(hours=10)
date_range = pd.date_range(date, freq='60min', periods=24)
date_range
Out[87]:

try
today = pd.datetime.today().date()
today - pd.offsets.Hour(14)
Timestamp('2016-11-22 10:00:00')
Then use pd.date_range
pd.date_range(today - pd.offsets.Hour(14), periods=24, freq='H')
