[New-bugs-announce] [issue15563] wrong conversion reported by

[Walid Shaari]

New submission from Walid Shaari:

In the code below the time stamp 1341183050 should be 01 July 2012.  however datetime is converting it back to 7 July 2012, the reverse too is wrong, is that just the way i am using the code?

In [2]: import datetime
In [3]: import time
In [4]: datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(1341183050)
Out[4]: datetime.datetime(2012, 7, 2, 1, 50, 50)
time.mktime(dt.timetuple())

In [5]: dt=datetime.datetime(2012, 7, 2, 1, 50, 50)
In [6]: time.mktime(dt.timetuple())
Out[6]: 1341183050.0

In [7]: dt=datetime.datetime(2012, 7, 1, 22, 50, 50)
In [8]: time.mktime(dt.timetuple())
Out[8]: 1341172250.0

In [9]: datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(1341172250.0)
Out[9]: datetime.datetime(2012, 7, 1, 22, 50, 50)
