Datetime
--------
* **Module Datetime provides Date (`'<D>'`), Time (`'<T>'`) and Datetime (`'<DT>'`) classes.**
* **Time and Datetime can be 'aware' (`'<a>'`), meaning they have defined timezone, or 'naive' (`'<n>'`), meaning they don't.
```python
from datetime import datetime
now = datetime.now()
now.month # 3
now.strftime('%Y%m%d') # '20180315'
now.strftime('%Y%m%d%H%M%S') # '20180315002834'
<datetime> = datetime.strptime('2015-05-12 00:39', '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M')
$ pip3 install pytz
from datetime import date, time, datetime, timedelta
import pytz
```
### Constructors
```python
<D> = date(year, month, day)
<T> = time(hour=0, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0, tzinfo=None, fold=0)
<DT> = datetime(year, month, day, hour=0, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0, tzinfo=None, fold=0)
<TD> = timedelta(days=0, seconds=0, microseconds=0, milliseconds=0, minutes=0, hours=0, weeks=0)
```
* **`'fold=1'` means second pass in case of time jumping back for one hour.**
* **Use `'<D/DT>.weekday()'` to get day of the week (Mon == 0).
### Now
```python
<D> = date.today() # Current local date.
<DTn> = datetime.today() # Naive datetime from current local time.
<DTn> = datetime.utcnow() # Naive datetime from current UTC time.
<DTa> = datetime.now(<tz>) # Aware datetime from current <tz> time.
```
### Encode
```python
<D/T/DT> = D/T/DT.fromisoformat(<str>) # From 'YYYY-MM-DD', 'HH:MM:SS.ffffff[+<offset>]' or both.
<DT> = DT.strptime(<str>, '<format>') # Datetime from string according to 'format'.
<D/DTn> = D/DT.fromordinal(<int>) # Date or datetime from days since Christ.
<D/DTn> = D/DT.fromtimestamp(<real>) # Date or datetime from seconds since Epoch in local time.
<DTn> = DT.utcfromtimestamp(<real>) # Naive datetime from seconds since Epoch in UTC time.
<DTa> = DT.fromtimestamp(<real>, <tz>) # Aware datetime from seconds since Epoch in <tz> time.
```
* **On Unix systems Epoch is `'1970-01-01 00:00 UTC'`, `'1970-01-01 01:00 CET'`, ...**
### Decode
```python
<str> = <D/T/DT>.isoformat() # 'YYYY-MM-DD', 'HH:MM:SS.ffffff[+<offset>]' or both.
<str> = <D/T/DT>.strftime('<format>') # Returns customized string representation.
<int> = <D/DT>.toordinal() # Returns days since Christ ignoring time and timezone.
<float> = <DT>.timestamp() # Returns seconds since Epoch in local time or <tz> if set.
```
### Format
```python
>>> dt = datetime.strptime('2015-05-14 23:39:00', '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
```
#### Rest of the options:
* **`'y'` - Year, 2 digits**
* **`'b'` - Month, abbreviated name**
* **`'B'` - Month, full name**
* **`'a'` - Weekday, abbreviated name**
* **`'A'` - Weekday, full name**
* **`'I'` - Hours, 2 digits, 12 hours**
* **`'p'` - AM/PM**
* **`'f'` - Microseconds, 6 digits**
* **`'z'` - Timezone offset, ± and 4 digits**
* **`'Z'` - Timezone name**
### Timezone
```python
<tz> = pytz.timezone('<Continent>/<City>') # Use 'pytz.utc' for UTC.
<DTa> = <DT>.astimezone(<tz>) # Converts datetime to passed timezone.
<Ta/DTa> = <T/DT>.replace(tzinfo=<timezone>) # Changes timezone without conversion.
<timedelta> = <T/DT>.utcoffset() # Returns timezone's current offset from UTC.
<timedelta> = <T/DT>.dst() # Returns daylight saving time offset.
