Hello group,
I'm currently doing something like this:
import time
localtime = time.localtime(1234567890)
fmttime = "%04d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d" % (localtime[0], localtime[1],
localtime[2], localtime[3], localtime[4], localtime[5])
print fmttime
For the third line there is, I suppose, some awesome python magic I
could use with list comprehensions. I tried:
fmttime = "%04d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d" % ([localtime[i] for i in
range(0, 5)])
But that didn't work:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./test.py", line 8, in ?
fmttime = "%04d-%02d-%02d %02d:%02d:%02d" % ([localtime[i] for i in
range(0, 5)])
TypeError: int argument required
As it appearently passed the while list [2009, 02, 14, 0, 31, 30] as the
first parameter which is supposed to be substituted by "%04d". Is there
some other way of doing it?
Thanks a lot,
Regards,
Johannes
You should look at time.strftime. It will do the formatting for you so you
don't have to do it manually as you have.
