Yep. Makes sense, since ‘datetime’ can do everything ‘date’ can do, and is conceptually a subset of the same concept. The same is not true of the ‘time’ type from that module, by the way; it does not represent a specific point on the timeline. So ‘datetime’ inheriting from ‘time’ wouldn't make sense. Just in case anyone was wondering. -- \ “There is something wonderful in seeing a wrong-headed majority | `\ assailed by truth.” —John Kenneth Galbraith, 1989-07-28 | _o__) | Ben Finney -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
