I'm trying to get the difference in dates using the time module rather
than datetime because I need to use strptime() to convert a date and
then find out how many weeks and days until that date. I'm a beginner
so any help would be appreciated. Here is the code:
def OBweeks(ptID):
qry = 'SELECT short_des FROM problems WHERE patient_ID = %s;' %
(ptID)
results = EMR_utilities.getAllData(qry)
for items in results:
r = re.search('\d\d\d\d-\d\d-\d\d', items)
if r:
d = time.strptime(r.group(), "%Y-%m-%d') -
time.localtime()
weeks, days = divmod(d.days, 7)
return '%s %s/7 weeks' % (weeks, days)
This isn't working. I'm getting "unsupported operand type for -:
'time.struct_time' and 'time.struct_time" error.
Thanks, Mike
