# Days 01-03 Dealing with Datetimes
2+
3+
Datetimes. The bane of our existence as coders (or at least for me anyway!).
4+
5+
This set of lessons will walk you through the basics of datetime, starting with datetime and date then moving onto timedelta.
6+
7+
8+
## Day N: Learn the basics of datetime and date
9+
10+
A super basic day to get you started. Watch *Learning datetime and date* and *Calculating time with datetime timedelta*.
11+
12+
After watching the videos, use your Python shell to play around with some timestamp calculations as per the content in the videos.
13+
14+
15+
## Day N+1: Bites of Py Bite 7 - Parsing dates from logs
16+
17+
Head on over to [CodeChalleng.es](https://codechalleng.es) and sign up if you haven't already.

20+
21+
Work on *Bite 7 - Parsing dates from logs* as your second day of learning datetime.
22+
23+
24+
## Day N+2: Your Turn!
25+
26+
You've got the basics down so now create something for yourself!
27+
28+
A fun project would be to create yourself a Pomodoro Timer that incorporates datetime rather than just the time module. Have it display timestamps.
29+
30+
This could also be applied to a stopwatch app. Use time of course but also throw in the timestamps and even some basic calculations on the difference between the start and end timestamps.
31+
32+
33+
### Time to share what you've accomplished!
34+
35+
Be sure to share your last couple of days work on Twitter or Facebook. Use the hashtag **#100DaysOfCode**.
36+
37+
Here are [some examples](https://twitter.com/search?q=%23100DaysOfCode) to inspire you. Consider including [@talkpython](https://twitter.com/talkpython) and [@pybites](https://twitter.com/pybites) in your tweets.
