In this article, we will discuss the time.replace() method in Python. This method is used to manipulate objects of time class of module datetime. It is used to replace the time with the same value, except for those parameters given new values by whichever keyword arguments.
Syntax: replace(year=self.year, month=self.month, day=self.day)
Parameters:
- Year: New year value (range: 1 <= year <= 9999)
- month: New month value(range: 1 <= month <= 12)
- day: New day value(range: 1<= day <= 31)
Returns: New datetime object.
Python program to get time and display:
Python3
# import time from datetime from datetime import time # create time x = time(5,34,7,6789) print("Time:", x) |
Output:
Time: 05:34:07.006789
Example 1: Python program to replace hour from the given time
Python3
# import time from datetime from datetime import time # create time x = time(5, 34, 7, 6789) print("Actual Time:", x) # replace hour from 5 to 10 final = x.replace(hour = 10) print("New time after changing the hour:", final) |
Output:
Actual Time: 05:34:07.006789 New time after changing the hour: 10:34:07.006789
Example 2: Python program to replace minute from time
Python3
# import time from datetime from datetime import time # create time x = time(5, 34, 7, 6789) print("Actual Time:", x) # replace minute from 34 to 12 final = x.replace(minute = 12) print("New time after changing the minute:", final) |
Output:
Actual Time: 05:34:07.006789 New time after changing the minute: 05:12:07.006789
Example 3: Python code to replace seconds
Python3
# import time from datetime from datetime import time # create time x = time(5,34,7,6789) print("Actual Time:", x) # replace second from 7 to 2 final = x.replace(second = 2) print("New time after changing the second:", final) |
Output:
Actual Time: 05:34:07.006789 New time after changing the second: 05:34:02.006789
Example 4: Python program to replace all at a time
Python3
# import time from datetime from datetime import time # create time x = time(5,34,7,6789) print("Actual Time:", x) # replace hour from 5 to 10 # replace minute from 34 to 11 # replace second from 7 to 1 # replace milli second from 6789 to 1234 final = x.replace(hour = 10, minute = 11, second = 1, microsecond = 1234) print("New time :", final) |
Output:
Actual Time: 05:34:07.006789 New time : 10:11:01.001234
