Hi
Can I send date and time like Hex in to the Serial port or file.
------------------------------------
from time import *
It preferable to just use "import time"
import time
def TimeMake():
'''Formating time and data (dd-mm-yy hh:mm) and change it like
ASCII'''
Time=list(localtime()) #get Time and Date
Time[0]=str(Time[0]) #Make (yy) str
Time = '%02d-%02d-%s %02d:%02d' % (Time[2], Time[1], Time[0][2:],
Time[4], Time[5]) #Formating (dd-mm-yy hh:mm)
The previous lines have a bug ("dd-mm-yy mm:ss" is the result). A less
error-prone version is:
Time = time.strftime('%d-%m-%y %H:%M',localtime())
TimeHex = []
for i in Time: #Take ASCII
TimeHex.append(ord(i))
Time =[]
for i in TimeHex: #Make ASCII in hex format
Time.append(hex(i))
return Time
Time=TimeMake()
#When I write it in the some file is a string but must to be like hex
------------------------------------
The resulting string from strftime *can* be sent directly to a serial port
or file. Each character in the string is a byte of data. If you actually
need to send hexadecimal characters as text, the binascii module has
hexlify:
>>> import binascii
>>> import time
>>> binascii.hexlify(time.strftime('%d-%m-%y %H:%M',localtime()))
