How do I find the time difference between two datetime objects in python?

Question

How do I tell the time difference in minutes between two datetime objects?

Answer 1

To get the hour, minute and second, you can do this

>>> import datetime
>>> first_time = datetime.datetime.now()
>>> later_time = datetime.datetime.now()
>>> difference = later_time - first_time
>>> m,s = divmod(difference.total_seconds(), 60)
>>> print("H:M:S is {}:{}:{}".format(m//60,m%60,s)
