Maybe there's a more elegant way to do this. I want to express the
result of datetime.datetime.now() in fractional hours.
Here's one way.
dt=datetime.datetime.now()
xtup = dt.timetuple()
h = xtup[3]+xtup[4]/60.0+xtup[5]/3600.00+xtup[6]/10**6
# now is in fractions of an hour
Here is another (though personally I don't find this more elegant than
yours, perhaps a bit more readable):
>>> now = datetime.datetime.now()
>>> fractional_hour = int(now.strftime('%H')) + int(now.strftime('%M'))
/ 60.0
