The literal answer to your question is, unsurprisingly, "Yes". Now, what do you really want/need: (a) details of an algorithm so that you can code it in Python (b) an implementation of (a) (c) a hint that Python might already have a standard module for date calculations (d) a hint that there are things called search engines ... just copy your subject and paste it in > Or just an algorithm, that converts YYYYMMDD to seconds since the epoch? > There is no such thing as "the" (unqualified) epoch. Try days_difference(from_date=your_chosen_epoch, to_date=some_date) * 24 * 60 * 60 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
