Question about strftime

2007-02-10 Thread silverburgh . meryl 
Hi,

I have question about strftime.  I am trying to print the current time
in this format:

date = strftime(%Y%m%d_%H%M%S, gmtime())
print date

I run the script at 2:18 pm, but I get this: 20070210_201837

Can you please tell me why I get '20'? instead of '14' (which is 2:00
pm)?

Thank you.

Wrong time zone?  Maybe you want localtime() instead of gmtime().

gmtime() returns the time in UTC, not local time, and your computer thinks  
you're in Mexico, central USA or Canada.
