从 Python 中的时间格式中删除毫秒

Question

Please refer to the image below on the end of this post.

For some reason, the column in red ( AVERAGE_TIME ) has a time format that displays the micro/milliseconds. Whilst the column in yellow ( TOTAL_TIME ) doesn't show this information.

I've converted both columns to strings using the same command highlighted by the yellow/red arrows.

How can I have the red column, in the same format as the yellow column? So basically without the micro/milliseconds.

Answer 1

You might have to do add some extra steps to get the exact format you want your durations in. But, it wouldn't be anything overly complex. For example, if you don't want microseconds, just add a .seconds to the delta object.

>>> td = timedelta(seconds=71113.45)
>>> td
datetime.timedelta(seconds=71113, microseconds=450000)
>>> td.seconds
71113

But, you may have to convert these to minutes on your own. Also, check out this thread which focuses on formatting timedelta in str, if you choose to head that way.

Alternatively, you can round off the seconds values before you pass them through timedelta directly.

str(timedelta(seconds=round(df_sb.iloc[i, 5])))
