Python Arrow Module: Create a new Arrow object, representing the "ceiling" of the timespan of the Arrow object in a given timeframe using arrow module

Arrow Module: Exercise-13 with Solution

Write a Python program to create a new Arrow object, representing the "ceiling" of the timespan of the Arrow object in a given timeframe using arrow module. The timeframe can be any datetime property like day, hour, minute.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

import arrow
print(arrow.utcnow())
print("Hour ceiling:")
print(arrow.utcnow().ceil('hour'))
print("\nMinute ceiling:")
print(arrow.utcnow().ceil('minute'))
print("\nSecond ceiling:")
print(arrow.utcnow().ceil('second'))

Sample Output:

2019-06-01T11:08:59.961000+00:00
Hour ceiling:
2019-06-01T11:59:59.999999+00:00

Minute ceiling:
2019-06-01T11:08:59.999999+00:00

Second ceiling:
2019-06-01T11:08:59.999999+00:00

Python: Tips of the Day

Find current directory and file's directory:

To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:

import os 
dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))

(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)

To get the current working directory use

import os
cwd = os.getcwd()

Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:

  • The os and os.path modules.
  • The __file__ constant
  • os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
  • os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
  • os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
  • os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
