[Tutor] Python time hour formatting

[Eric Culpepper]

Check the http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-time.html document for the time module for all the different options for strftime.. but to directly answer your question you can use %H for 24 hour format, %I is for 12 hour format.

Subject: [Tutor] Python time hour formatting




hi everyone, quick question.  I currently have this:

time.strftime("%a %b %d, %Y  %I:%M:%S %p",time.localtime(time.time()))

to print out:

'Thu Mar 25, 2004  02:19:23 PM'

However, I don't want a leading zero in the hour column if
there is only one digit.  Is there a way to do this:

'Thu Mar 25, 2004   2:19:23 PM'

?

I already tried '%1I' to no avail.
