The python interpreter can be pretty helpful for this kind of question. >>> import datetime >>> t = datetime.datetime.now() >>> t datetime.datetime(2006, 11, 16, 12, 44, 23, 766220) >>> dir(t) ['__add__', '__class__', '__delattr__', '__doc__', '__eq__', '__ge__', '__getattribute__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', '__le__', '__lt__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__radd__', '__reduce__', '__reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__rsub__', '__setattr__', '__str__', '__sub__', 'astimezone', 'combine', 'ctime', 'date', 'day', 'dst', 'fromordinal', 'fromtimestamp', 'hour', 'isocalendar', 'isoformat', 'isoweekday', 'max', 'microsecond', 'min', 'minute', 'month', 'now', 'replace', 'resolution', 'second', 'strftime', 'time', 'timetuple', 'timetz', 'today', 'toordinal', 'tzinfo', 'tzname', 'utcfromtimestamp', 'utcnow', 'utcoffset', 'utctimetuple', 'weekday', 'year'] >>> t.hour 12 >>> t.min datetime.datetime(1, 1, 1, 0, 0) >>> t.minute 44 >>> t.second 23 The dir function returns the contents of an object. min and minute were the likely names for the the number of minutes. Your Python installation should have included the documentation, but you can also go to the python.org web site. The module index provides links to each module's documentation. http://www.python.org/doc/ http://docs.python.org/modindex.html http://docs.python.org/lib/module-datetime.html Reading the module documentation we find that min is the minimum datetime value and has nothing to do with minutes. > > TIA. > Regards, > Asrarahmed > > -- > To HIM you shall return. > _______________________________________________ > Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor -- Lloyd Kvam Venix Corp _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
