        Time

Known Subclasses:

Base time object.

Time object support the following operations:

Comparison. Comparison is done using the native time object type. For example, "Posix" objects compare time in POSIX seconds. Thus, if comparing two Posix objects that have slightly different TSC values, but due to the loss of precision have the same POSIX value, they will compare as equal.

Comparison between different types is OK (Posix compared to TSC). You can also compare a value with Python numeric literals (int, long, float, etc.).
Hashing. Hashing is based on the object type.
Addition and subtraction. This only works between two types of the exact same type (Posix and Posix for example), or with a Python numeric literal (int, long, float, etc.).
int/long/float. Calling the int, long, or float functions on the object will return an int, long, or float value of the object's type.

new(T, S, ...)

Returns: a new object with type S, a subtype of T
Overrides: object.__new__

repr(x)
(Representation operator)

repr(x)

Overrides: object.__repr__

as_posix_fsec(...)

Return the time as POSIX seconds (a floating-point number).

Returns:: Returns a float as POSIX seconds.

as_posix_sec(...)

Return the time as POSIX seconds (an integer).

Returns:: Returns an integer as POSIX seconds.

as_posix_usec(...)

Return the time as POSIX microseconds (a long).

Returns:: Returns a long as POSIX microseconds.

ctime(...)

Return the time as a string.

This returns the time as a classic C-style 24-character time string in the local timezone in the format 'Sun Jun 20 23:21:05 1993'. This does not include a trailing newline like C does.

Returns:: Returns a string of the local time.

gmtime(...)

Return a Python time-tuple in UTC.

Returns:: Returns a time.struct_time time-tuple in UTC.

localtime(...)

Return a Python time-tuple in the local timezone.

Returns:: Returns a time.struct_time time-tuple in the local timezone.

mkstr_local(...)

Convert time to a string in the local timezone.

Parameters:

format - : The format that you want the string as. See the strftime function in the time module for more details.

Returns:

Returns a string in the local timezone.

mkstr_utc(...)

Convert time to a string in UTC.

Parameters:

format - : The format that you want the string as. See the strftime function in the time module for more details.

Returns:

Returns a string in UTC.
