And I just noticed an error in my correction code!
if len(splitLine) = 5 should be -
if len(splitLine) == 6

I'm real sorry.
My standard disclaimer is now amended to include - "Never post untested code"
Disregard everything I wrote above. I feel real bad, so bad that I did
something I very rarely do... write complete code.

thanks everyone... I will look at all the various appraoches folks came
up with and see what i can learnn from them. I ended doing something
lame -- a brute force method. I formmatted and reformatted my input
data and stuffed it in a HUGE dictionary it was stupid and
kludgy i hope to st
It's kind of easy -
so that stuff you've got there is in a file called dude.inp, for
argument's sake -
import datetime
filename=file("dude.inp","r")
lineList=filename.readlines()
filename.close()
for line in lineList:
#This is the hard bit, formatting your in dates
splitLine=line.
I also notice that there is the is the 'datetime' module, which is new
to version 2.3, which i now have access to. My feeling is that this
will do much of what i want, but i can't get my head round the standard
library reference stuff

I am still working on it and also fixing the input data. I think for
simplicity and consistency's sake i will have *all* time values input
and output as hh:mm:ss maybe that would be easier for now.. so i am
editing the input stuff now...
so it should all look like:
Item_1, DAT_1, 1, 00:00:23, 0

Forgot to mention -- screwed up before. In my proposed try/except block,
etc. I forgot to do unit conversion.

I don't think so. (correct me if I'm wrong) The datetime module is for
making date and time instances that you can add and subtract to get
timedelta objects. Other things involved of course, but I don't think it has
anything to do with parsing and
pretty printing columns of times. I'm not sure, don
Would this do the trick?
stringtime = '12:34' ## This is the column with the time 12:34 is an
example
time = stringtime.split(":")
time = [int(x) for x in time]
time.reverse()
seconds = time[0]+time[1]
try:
seconds += time[2]
except IndexError:
pass
print seconds
I'm almost sure there
Thanks for this Everyone!
Trying to work with all the stuff folks are giving me on this i a have
come across a problem... down
the line i notice that some of the times will also have an hour as well
as in H:M:S (e.g. 1:22:40)
so in some cases i would need to convert H:M:S to sec and some just M:
