ok i want to get the time in this type of format from my computer

12:00

but i dont know how to do that in python...?

[unutbu]

#!/usr/bin/env python
import time
# Two-digit hour in 24-hour format
print(time.strftime('%H:%M'))

# Or you can use the datetime module
import datetime
print(datetime.datetime.now().strftime('%H:%M'))

See http://au2.php.net/strftime for a synopsis of valid codes you can use with strftime.
