Right a quick overview of what we're doing for the next
0:03
couple of days.
0:04
For the first day of your datetimes lessons you're going to
0:08
watch the videos, okay?
0:10
A couple of videos for you to watch to do with datetime,
0:12
date, and timedelta.
0:15
Alright after you've done, after you've completed watching
0:17
the videos go ahead and just play around in the shell.
0:21
So do some timestamp calculations as per the content
0:25
in the videos.
0:26
So we won't dwell on that too much.
0:28
The second day I want you to head to our challenges,
0:32
our challenges platform I should say and sign up with your
0:36
GitHub account.
0:37
It's free and then follow this link here and this will
0:40
unlock this datetimes challenge, okay?
0:46
This bite here is going to be based around parsing dates
0:50
from logs.
0:52
Okay so have a play with it, code in the browser
0:55
and have fun.
0:56
That's your day two.
0:58
Then day three.
1:00
That is all going to be up to you.
1:02
Create something for yourself.
1:04
I reckon you should give a Pomodoro timer a chance.
1:08
Use datetime for it.
1:10
I know you can just use a time module for these
1:12
examples here but the idea is to include some timestamps.
1:16
Do some calculations and see what you can wrap around date
1:19
time okay so the Pomodoro timer is quite simple.
1:24
You can do that or you can do a stop watch.
1:26
Anything like that.
1:28
So if you have any ideas yourself now is your time to
1:30
test it out on day three.
