Convert COARDS time specification to a datetime object.
Project description
This module converts between a given COARDS time specification and a Python datetime object, which is much more useful. Suppose you have an Array of values [1,2,3] and units “days since 1998-03-01 12:00:00”:
>>> a = [1, 2, 3] >>> units = 'days since 1998-03-01 12:00:00' >>> b = [from_udunits(value, units) for value in a] >>> print b[0].year 1998 >>> b[1] > b[0] True >>> print b[1] - b[0] 1 day, 0:00:00
The list b now contains objects which can be compared and manipulated in a consistent way.
The latest version is available in a Subversion repository.
