Python: A tuple containing 9 elements corresponding to structure time as an argument and returns a string representing it

Python Datetime: Exercise-62 with Solution

Write a Python program that takes a tuple containing 9 elements corresponding to structure time as an argument and returns a string representing it.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

import time
t = (2020, 1, 22, 2, 34, 6, 6, 362, 0)
result = time.asctime(t)
print("Result:", result)
t = (1982, 11, 12, 2, 54, 8, 8, 360, 0)
result = time.asctime(t)
print("Result:", result)

Sample Output: 

Result: Sun Jan 22 02:34:06 2020
Result: Tue Nov 12 02:54:08 1982

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")
