time.gmtime() method of Time module is used to convert a time expressed in seconds since the epoch to a time.struct_time object in UTC in which tm_isdst attribute is always 0.
To convert the given time in seconds since the epoch to a time.struct_time object in local time, time.localtime() method is used.
This method returns a time.struct_time object with a named tuple interface. Following are the values present in time.struct_time object:
| Index | Attribute | Values |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | tm_year | (for example, 1993) |
| 1 | tm_mon | range [1, 12] |
| 2 | tm_mday | range [1, 31] |
| 3 | tm_hour | range [0, 23] |
| 4 | tm_min | range [0, 59] |
| 5 | tm_sec | range [0, 61] |
| 6 | tm_wday | range [0, 6], Monday is 0 |
| 7 | tm_yday | range [1, 366] |
| 8 | tm_isdst | 0, 1 or -1 |
| N/A | tm_zone | abbreviation of timezone name |
| N/A | tm_gmtoff | offset east of UTC in seconds |
Syntax: time.gmtime([secs]) Parameter: secs (optional): An integer or float value representing time in seconds. Fractions of specified seconds will be ignored. If the secs parameter is not provided or None then the current time as returned by time.time() method is used. Return type: This method returns an object of class 'time.struct_time'.Code #1: Use of
