Question
Asked By – Mahdi Yusuf
I am trying to figure out the differences between the datetime
and time
modules, and what each should be used for.
I know that datetime
provides both dates and time. What is the use of the time
module?
Examples would be appreciated and differences concerning timezones would especially be of interest.
Now we will see solution for issue: Difference between Python datetime vs time modules
Answer
The time
module is principally for working with Unix time stamps; expressed as a floating point number taken to be seconds since the Unix epoch. the datetime
module can support many of the same operations, but provides a more object oriented set of types, and also has some limited support for time zones.
