TASK 3: Datetime Module
Code:
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
# Example of working with dates and times
current_time = datetime.now() # Get current date and time
formatted_time = current_time.strftime(“%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S”) # Format the time as a string

# Example of adding and subtracting time
one_day_later = current_time + timedelta(days=1)
two_hours_earlier = current_time - timedelta(hours=2)
print(formatted_time)

print(one_day_later.strftime(“%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S”))
print(two_hours_earlier.strftime(“%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S”))

• This line imports the datetime class and the timedelta class from the datetime module. the datetime class is
used to represent dates and times, and the timedelta class is used to represent the difference between two
dates or times.

• This line creates a datetime object representing the current date and time.

• The strftime method is used to format the datetime object as a string according to the specified format. In this
case, it formats the date and time in the “Year-Month-Day Hour:Minute:Second” format.
