Converting Time question
Hello PythonPeople.. Can anybody help me out? How do I convert a time of day from milliseconds? For example: I got the following time in milliseconds: 1,090516451769E+15 And I want to print it like: 17:14:11.769 I'm on WinXP Time zone: GMT +01:00 Thank you all! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Re: Converting Time question
Me again.. I guess I ask it wrong.. I measure a time at racing events.this tracktime is measures in the format hh:mm:ssDDD where DDD = thousands of a second...like 17:14:11.769 This format is being saved as a number of micro seconds since 1970.. like 1,090516451769E+15 How do I convert from the micros seconds back to time format above? thanks again Hope someone can help me out..

Re: Converting Time question
Math enlightened us with: How do I convert a time of day from milliseconds? Milliseconds since what? Sybren -- The problem with the world is stupidity. Not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Use the datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp() function, after dividing the number of milliseconds by 1000 to create seconds. Sybren -- The problem with the world is stupidity.

This is probably what you want
import datetime
t=datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(1.090516451769E+15/1E6)
t
datetime.datetime(2004, 7, 22, 18, 14, 11, 769000)
t.isoformat()
'2004-07-22T18:14:11.769000'
t.isoformat(' ').split()[1]
'18:14:11.769000'
Note that this converts using the PCs time zone (hence it says 18:14
not 17:14). You can pass your own timezone in (but it isn't easy!),
or you can use utcfromtimestamp()
datetime.datetime.utcfromtimestamp(1.090516451769E+15/1E6).isoformat()[-15:]
'17:14:11.769000'
