內置模塊time包含很多與時間相關函數。我們可通過它獲得當前的時間和格式化時間輸出。
time()，以浮點形式返回自Linux新世紀以來經過的秒數。在linux中，00:00:00 UTC, January 1, 1970是新**49**的開始。
strftime可以用來獲得當前時間，可以將時間格式化為字符串等等，還挺方便的。但是需要注意的是獲得的時間是服務器的時間，注意時區問題，比如gae撒謊那個的時間就是格林尼治時間的0時區，需要自己轉換。
strftime（）函數將時間格式化
我們可以使用strftime（）函數將時間格式化為我們想要的格式。它的原型如下：
size_t strftime(
char *strDest,
size_t maxsize,
const char *format,
const struct tm *timeptr
);
我們可以根據format指向字符串中格式命令把timeptr中保存的時間信息放在strDest指向的字符串中，最多向strDest中存放maxsize個字符。該函數返回向strDest指向的字符串中放置的字符數。
strftime使時間格式化。python的strftime格式是C庫支持的時間格式的真子集。
