Right a quick overview of what we're doing for the next couple of days. For the first day of your datetimes lessons you're going to
0:09
watch the videos, okay? A couple of videos for you to watch to do with datetime, date, and timedelta.
0:16
Alright after you've done, after you've completed watching the videos go ahead and just play around in the shell.
0:22
So do some timestamp calculations as per the content in the videos. So we won't dwell on that too much.

The second day I want you to head to our challenges, our challenges platform I should say and sign up with your GitHub account.
0:38
It's free and then follow this link here and this will unlock this datetimes challenge, okay? This bite here is going to be based around parsing dates
0:51
from logs. Okay so have a play with it, code in the browser and have fun. That's your day two. Then day three. That is all going to be up to you.
1:03
Create something for yourself. I reckon you should give a Pomodoro timer a chance. Use datetime for it. I know you can just use a time module for these
1:13
examples here but the idea is to include some timestamps. Do some calculations and see what you can wrap around date
1:20
time okay so the Pomodoro timer is quite simple. You can do that or you can do a stop watch. Anything like that.
1:29
So if you have any ideas yourself now is your time to test it out on day three.
