I am using 2.7 on Ubuntu 12.10. All I need to do is to print time with the
microseconds.[...]
# write date and time and microseocnds
self.logfile.write('%s\t'%(str(strftime("%Y-%m-%d", ))))
self.logfile.write('%s\t'%(str(strftime("%H:%M:%S", ))))
self.logfile.write('%s\t'%(str(time())))
the output looks like this:
2013-08-02 06:01:43 00:00:00
2013-08-02 06:01:43 00:00:00
2013-08-02 06:01:43 00:00:00
2013-08-02 06:01:43 00:00:00
2013-08-02 06:01:43 00:00:00
The output here and the code are surely not the same, provided that
"time()" is the same as Python's "time.time()". That function will give
you the time as a floating-point number and with as much precision as is
available. You then only need the rest when dividing by one to get the
fractional seconds.
BTW:
1. You have a race condition, you are retrieving the time thrice, which
can and should yield different results for each call. Call it once, then
format the results in multiple steps if you want.
2. Python's strftime() gives you a string already, calling str() on it
is redundant. Also, formatting a string in order to then format it into
another string is unnecessary overhead. Further, '%s' will implicitly
invoke str() on the argument. Belt and suspenders anyone? :)
Good luck!
