Our authors tell us that feedback from you is a big motivator. Please take a few moments to let them know what you think of their work.
date and time are two important aspects of programming. In Python there are data types that let you represent date and time in a format that makes sense. Enter the "datetime" module. It contains classes to make working with date and time a snap!

Brilliant.
Well done. It sounds like you must have a nice microphone also.
Its a good video and It would be nice if you also teach OOP to better understand these classes
