I'm having trouble finding exactly what I need by googling, so thought
I'd try to get a quick answer from the group. This seems like something
that should be dead simple.
I need to generate a string value of a date in the format MMDD that
is 97 days in the future. The datetime module is bran

While the above works, the following variation using datetime is more
readable:
>>> import datetime
>>> someday = datetime.date.
Perfect. Thanks a million.
.strftime was the method I was looking for.

Ah, true. Sorry. I got thrown by the ouput after the line got executed and assumed it was the value of a.

In your example, you called a's replace() method, but did nothing with
the new datetime object that it returned. The original object, a,
naturally still has the same
datetime objects are immutable. You can't change the value of anexisting datetime object, only create a new one.
Um.. then how do I get the same ID when I call the replace method?
>>> a = datetime.datetime(2006, 8, 12, 10, 13, 56, 609000)>>> b = a + datetime.timedelta(days=-2, hours=-4)>>>

the datetime object appears to have a replace method which could achieve what you want to do, albeith with some computation from your end first,
>>> d = datetime.datetime(2006, 8, 3, 14, 13, 56, 609000)>>> dir(d)['__add__', '__class__', '__delattr__', '__doc__', '__eq__', '__ge__', '__getattribut
In a datetime object I would like to change days and hours.
Or in other words, I would like to copy this datetime object but
increase days and hours.
Is it possible?
For example:If I have a datetime object like this
datetime.datetime(2006, 8, 3, 14, 13, 56, 609000)
I would like to make a new ,for

Thanks, yes, I guess the question is ... what date/time is it looking at ?
and is it the same under various OSs ?

Hi,
I need to get the date and time under Windows and Linux but need the
