Fields** [Navigate to field\_datetime\_year](#field_datetime_year) year int The year value of the datetime object. [Navigate to field\_datetime\_month](#field_datetime_month) month int The month value of the datetime object. [Navigate to field\_datetime\_day](#field_datetime_day) day int The day value of the datetime object. [Navigate to field\_datetime\_hour](#field_datetime_hour) hour int The hour value of the datetime object. [Navigate to field\_datetime\_minute](#field_datetime_minute) minute int The minute value of the datetime object. [Navigate to field\_datetime\_second](#field_datetime_second) second int The second value of the datetime object. [Navigate to field\_datetime\_microsecond](#field_datetime_microsecond) microsecond int The microsecond value of the datetime object. **2. Methods** [Navigate to method\_datetime\_init](#method_datetime_init) **init** (year, month, day, hour, minute, second, microsecond) -> None Class constructor (initializer for the data type). **parameters info** year int required Year value. month int required Month value. day int required Day value. hour int default: 0 Hour value. minute int default: 0 Minute value. second int default: 0 Second value. microsecond int default: 0 Microsecond value. [Navigate to method\_datetime\_timestamp](#method_datetime_timestamp) timestamp () -> float Returns the total number of seconds since the Unix epoch. [Navigate to method\_datetime\_weekday](#method_datetime_weekday) weekday () -> int Returns the day of the week as an integer, where Monday is 0 and Sunday is 6. [Navigate to method\_datetime\_add](#method_datetime_add) **add** (delta) -> datetime.datetime `+` operator for `datetime` objects. **parameters info** delta datetime.timedelta required Timedelta to add to the current datetime. [Navigate to method\_datetime\_sub](#method_datetime_sub) **sub** (delta) -> datetime.datetime `-` operator for `datetime` objects. **parameters info** delta datetime.timedelta required Timedelta to subtract from the current datetime. **sub** (other) -> datetime.timedelta `-` operator for `datetime` objects. **parameters info** other datetime.datetime required Datetime to subtract from the current datetime. **3. Static methods** [Navigate to method\_datetime\_utcfromtimestamp](#method_datetime_utcfromtimestamp) utcfromtimestamp (timestamp) -> datetime.datetime Returns the UTC datetime corresponding to the POSIX timestamp. **parameters info** timestamp float required Timestamp in UTC. [Navigate to method\_datetime\_strptime](#method_datetime_strptime) strptime (date\_string, format) -> datetime.datetime Returns a datetime corresponding to `date_string`, parsed according to `format`. **parameters info** date\_string str required Datetime to parse. format str required Datetime format. Supported codes: `%Y`, `%y`, `%m`, `%b`, `%d`, `%H`, `%I`, `%M`, `%S`, `%p`, `%f`, `%z`. See more details [here](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#strftime-and-strptime-format-codes). *** ### `time` *type* Represents a time of day, independent of any particular day. **1. Fields** [Navigate to field\_time\_hour](#field_time_hour) hour int The hour value of the time object. [Navigate to field\_time\_minute](#field_time_minute) minute int The minute value of the time object. [Navigate to field\_time\_second](#field_time_second) second int The second value of the time object. [Navigate to field\_time\_microsecond](#field_time_microsecond) microsecond int The microsecond value of the time object. **2. Methods** [Navigate to method\_time\_init](#method_time_init) **init** (hour, minute, second, microsecond) -> None Class constructor (initializer for the data type). **parameters info** hour int default: 0 Hour value. minute int default: 0 Minute value. second int default: 0 Second value. microsecond int default: 0 Microsecond value. [Navigate to method\_time\_add](#method_time_add) **add** (delta) -> datetime.datetime `+` operator for `time` objects. **parameters info** delta datetime.timedelta required Timedelta to add to the current time. [Navigate to method\_time\_sub](#method_time_sub) **sub** (delta) -> datetime.datetime `-` operator for `time` objects. **parameters info** delta datetime.timedelta required Timedelta to subtract from the current time. *** ### `timedelta` *type* A timedelta object represents a duration, the difference between two datetimes. **1. Fields** [Navigate to field\_timedelta\_days](#field_timedelta_days) days int The days value of the timedelta object. [Navigate to field\_timedelta\_seconds](#field_timedelta_seconds) seconds int The seconds value of the timedelta object. [Navigate to field\_timedelta\_microseconds](#field_timedelta_microseconds) microseconds int The microseconds value of the timedelta object. **2. Methods** [Navigate to method\_timedelta\_init](#method_timedelta_init) **init** (days, seconds, microseconds, milliseconds, minutes, hours, weeks) -> None Class constructor (initializer for the data type). **parameters info** days int default: 0 Number of days. seconds int default: 0 Number of seconds. microseconds int default: 0 Number of microseconds. milliseconds int default: 0 Number of milliseconds. minutes int default: 0 Number of minutes. hours int default: 0 Number of hours. weeks int default: 0 Number of weeks. [Navigate to method\_timedelta\_total\_seconds](#method_timedelta_total_seconds) total\_seconds () -> float Returns the total number of seconds contained in the duration. *** This documentation is built and hosted on [Mintlify](https://mintlify.com), a developer documentation platform.
