Course Description

Time and date are more than just a data type. Nearly every application uses dates and/or time in some manner. Every large program has bugs that involve incorrect time and date handling. This course, Working With Dates and Times In Python, will teach you how to handle date and times in Python programs. You'll first discover key Python modules and hardware clocks that can work with dates, time, and calendars. Next, we'll show you how to deal with time zones, daylight savings time, calendars and other locales. You'll also learn how to use recurring time stamps, how best to store date and times in a database, and how to set up Django to handle time zones. This course will give you a solid understanding about how Python handles date and time. This will make you a better developer.
