I've been trying to use the datetime library in python to create a datetime object with this value: '0000-00-00 00:00:00'. However, I keep getting an error that the year is out of range. How can I properly initialize this?
There is no year 0, because people couldn't figure out how to count properly back then.
The closest you can get:
>>> from datetime import datetime
>>> datetime.min
datetime.datetime(1, 1, 1, 0, 0)
In datetime , the constant for MINYEAR is 1:
datetime.MINYEAR
The smallest year number allowed in a date or datetime object. MINYEAR is 1.
To initialize the earliest possible date you would do:
import datetime
earliest_date = datetime.datetime.min
# OR
earliest_date = datetime.datetime(1,1,1,0,0)
print earliest_date.isoformat()
Which outputs:
0001-01-01T00:00:00
"How to initialize datetime 0000-00-00 00:00:00 in Python?"
No allowed, see manual datetime.
Alternative solution to the question is the minimum datetime:
>>> datetime.datetime.combine(datetime.date.min, datetime.time.min)
datetime.datetime(1, 1, 1, 0, 0)
found while reading: https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/datetime.html#module-datetime
Maybe this is something that can help.
var = datetime(1,1,1,0,0) - datetime(1,1,1,0,0)
