Duolingo Date Snippet
Last week I had achieved 1200 days on duolingo! That’s a great mark but I wonder know when I started my way with that.
So, I thought about creating a small snippet code for sharing!
Code
# Usage
# python number_of_days_to_date.py -d number_of_days
import argparse
from datetime import datetime, date, time, timedelta
# This code is to catch the argument as 'dias' variable.
ap = argparse.ArgumentParser()
ap.add_argument("-d", "--dias",
help="numero de dias para convertir")
args = vars(ap.parse_args())
dias = int(args["dias"])
# The importance between / and //.
años = dias // 365
meses = int( (dias / 365 - dias // 365)*12 // 1 )
diasenmes = int( ((dias / 365 - dias // 365)*12 / 1 - (dias / 365 - dias // 365)*12 // 1)*30 // 1 )
print('{} días son: {} años, {} meses, {} días'.format(dias, años, meses, diasenmes, ))
fecha_origen = date.today() - timedelta(days=dias)
print('Todo esto empezó el {}'.format(fecha_origen))
The keypoint
The importance of the operator / and //:
/returns the complete division5.3451 / 1 = 5.3451
//returns the entire part.5.3451 // 1 = 5.0
Usage
The usage is through and argument
python number_of_days_to_date.py -d 1200
