Calculating Year, Month and Day of Life

[hokiegal99]

Hello,

I am a funeral director trying to write a small program that calculates 
the number of years, months and days a person has lived by entering the 
year, month and day of their birth. This is what I have so far:

#---------------------
from time import *
local = localtime()

print "Enter the year of birth:"; y = input()
print "Enter the month of birth:"; m = input()
print "Enter the day of birth:"; d = input()

age = y,m,d
print age
print local
#----------------------

The output looks similiar to this:
(1934, 2, 7)
(2003, 7, 5, 13, 20, 0, 5, 186, 1)

My problem is that localtime is a list of 9 integers while age is a list 
of 3 integers. Is it possible to make localtime() only return the first 
3 integers? If so, how would I then do calculations on the two lists' 
individual parts? For example, how would I instruct localtime() to 
subtract the first integer from age's list from the first intger in its 
own list (2003 - 1934)?

Also, I am new to python, but I like it a lot and have picked it up 
quickly. If my approach to this solving this problem is completely 
wrong, please point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance!!!
