python calculate seconds between two dates code example
Example 1: python difference in dates in seconds
future_date = datetime.datetime(1970, 1, 2)
past_date = datetime.datetime(1970, 1, 1)
difference = (future_date - past_date)
Calculate difference in time
total_seconds = difference.total_seconds()
Convert time difference to seconds
print(total_seconds)
OUTPUT
86400.0
Example 2: python datetime difference in seconds
import datetime as dt
a = dt.datetime(2013,12,30,23,59,59)
b = dt.datetime(2013,12,31,23,59,59)
(b-a).total_seconds()
