Program:
/* ............... START ............... */
import datetime
import pytz
# Get the current time in UTC
utc_time = datetime.datetime.now(pytz.utc)
# Specify the time zones you want to display
timezones = ['America/New_York', 'Europe/London', 'Asia/Tokyo']
# Iterate over the time zones and print the current time
for timezone in timezones:
tz = pytz.timezone(timezone)
local_time = utc_time.astimezone(tz)
print(f"Current time in {timezone}: {local_time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')}")
/* ............... END ............... */
Output
Current time in America/New_York: 2023-06-19 09:42:30
Current time in Europe/London: 2023-06-19 14:42:30
Current time in Asia/Tokyo: 2023-06-20 00:42:30
Please note that the actual output will depend on the current time when you run the code,
as it displays the current time in each specified time zone at that moment.
Notes:
-
To get the current time in different time zones using Python, you can utilize the datetime and pytz libraries.
- In this example, we first obtain the current time in UTC using datetime.datetime.now(pytz.utc). Next, we specify the time zones we want to display by providing their respective identifiers, such as 'America/New_York', 'Europe/London', and 'Asia/Tokyo'. You can modify the timezones list to include the desired time zones.
- Then, we iterate over the time zones and convert the UTC time to the corresponding local time using the astimezone() method of the datetime object. Finally, we format and print the local time for each time zone using the strftime() method.
- Make sure you have the pytz library installed before running this code. You can install it using pip install pytz.
