我给出了这样的日期字符串：
Mon Jun 28 10:51:07 2010
Fri Jun 18 10:18:43 2010
Wed Dec 15 09:18:43 2010
什么是计算天数差异的便捷 python 方法？假设时区相同。
字符串由 linux 命令返回。

>>> import datetime
>>> a = datetime.datetime.strptime("Mon Jun 28 10:51:07 2010", "%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y")
>>> b = datetime.datetime.strptime("Fri Jun 18 10:18:43 2010", "%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y")
>>> c = a-b
>>> c.days
10
【讨论】：
使用strptime。
示例用法：
from datetime import datetime
my_date = datetime.strptime('Mon Jun 28 10:51:07 2010', '%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y')
print my_date

您还可以以人类可读的形式打印时差，如下所示：
from time import strptime
from datetime import datetime
def date_diff(older, newer):
"""
Returns a humanized string representing time difference
The output rounds up to days, hours, minutes, or seconds.
4 days 5 hours returns '4 days'
0 days 4 hours 3 minutes returns '4 hours', etc...
"""
timeDiff = newer - older
days = timeDiff.days
hours = timeDiff.seconds/3600
minutes = timeDiff.seconds%3600/60
seconds = timeDiff.seconds%3600%60
str = ""
tStr = ""
if days > 0:
if days == 1: tStr = "day"
else: tStr = "days"
str = str + "%s %s" %(days, tStr)
return str
elif hours > 0:
if hours == 1: tStr = "hour"
else: tStr = "hours"
str = str + "%s %s" %(hours, tStr)
return str
elif minutes > 0:
if minutes == 1:tStr = "min"
else: tStr = "mins"
str = str + "%s %s" %(minutes, tStr)
return str
elif seconds > 0:
if seconds == 1:tStr = "sec"
else: tStr = "secs"
str = str + "%s %s" %(seconds, tStr)
return str
else:
return None
older = datetime.strptime('Mon Jun 28 10:51:07 2010', '%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y')
newer = datetime.strptime('Tue Jun 28 10:52:07 2010', '%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y')
print date_diff(older, newer)

这与其他答案的思路不同，但它可能对希望显示更易于阅读（且不太精确）的人有所帮助。我很快就完成了，欢迎提出建议。
（请注意，它假定until_seconds 是较晚的时间戳。）
def readable_delta(from_seconds, until_seconds=None):
'''Returns a nice readable delta.
readable_delta(1, 2) # 1 second ago
readable_delta(1000, 2000) # 16 minutes ago
readable_delta(1000, 9000) # 2 hours, 133 minutes ago
readable_delta(1000, 987650) # 11 days ago
readable_delta(1000) # 15049 days ago (relative to now)
'''
if not until_seconds:
until_seconds = time.time()
seconds = until_seconds - from_seconds
delta = datetime.timedelta(seconds=seconds)
# deltas store time as seconds and days, we have to get hours and minutes ourselves
delta_minutes = delta.seconds // 60
delta_hours = delta_minutes // 60
## show a fuzzy but useful approximation of the time delta
if delta.days:
return '%d day%s ago' % (delta.days, plur(delta.days))
elif delta_hours:
return '%d hour%s, %d minute%s ago' % (delta_hours, plur(delta_hours), delta_minutes, plur(delta_minutes))
elif delta_minutes:
return '%d minute%s ago' % (delta_minutes, plur(delta_minutes))
else:
return '%d second%s ago' % (delta.seconds, plur(delta.seconds))
def plur(it):
'''Quick way to know when you should pluralize something.'''
try:
size = len(it)
except TypeError:
size = int(it)
return '' if size==1 else 's'

试试这个：
>>> (datetime.datetime.strptime("Mon Jun 28 10:51:07 2010", "%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y") - datetime.datetime.strptime("Fri Jun 18 10:18:43 2010", "%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y")).days
10
【讨论】：
from datetime import datetime
resp = raw_input("What is the first date ?")
date1 = datetime.strptime(resp,"%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y")
resp2 = raw_input("What is the second date ?")
date2 = datetime.strptime(resp2,"%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y")
res = date2-date1
print str(res)

这是@the_void 改进的 date_diff() 例程。它将根据差异的大小以以下方式打印差异：
1d
12 sec
30 min 12 sec
3h 30m
5d 3h 30m
下面是例程：
def date_diff(newer, older):
if newer < older:
return '-1'
timeDiff = newer - older
days = int(timeDiff.days)
hours = int(timeDiff.seconds/3600)
minutes = int(timeDiff.seconds%3600/60)
seconds = int(timeDiff.seconds%3600%60)
str = ""
tStr = ""
if days > 0:
tStr = "d"
str = str + "%s%s " %(days, tStr)
if hours > 0:
tStr = "h"
str = str + "%s%s " %(hours, tStr)
if minutes > 0:
if days == 0 and hours == 0:
tStr = 'min'
str = str + "%s %s " %(minutes, tStr)
else:
tStr = "m"
str = str + "%s%s " %(minutes, tStr)
if days == 0 and hours == 0:
if seconds >= 0:
if days == 0 and hours == 0:
tStr = "sec"
str = str + "%s %s" %(seconds, tStr)
else:
tStr = 's'
str = str + "%s%s" %(seconds, tStr)
return str
