还有一个尚未提到的datetime.toordinal()方法:

import datetime
print(datetime.date(2008,9,26).toordinal() - datetime.date(2008,8,18).toordinal())  # 39

https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.date.toordinal

date.toordinal () 返回日期的预期格里高利历序数，其中第一年的1月1日序数为1。对于任意日期对象d， Date.fromordinal (d.toordinal()) == d。

似乎很适合计算日差，但可读性不如timedelta.days。

如果您有两个date对象，您可以将它们相减，这将计算一个timedelta对象。

from datetime import date

d0 = date(2008, 8, 18)
d1 = date(2008, 9, 26)
delta = d1 - d0
print(delta.days)

文档的相关部分: https://docs.python.org/library/datetime.html。

请看另一个例子。

from datetime import date
def d(s):
  [month, day, year] = map(int, s.split('/'))
  return date(year, month, day)
def days(start, end):
  return (d(end) - d(start)).days
print days('8/18/2008', '9/26/2008')

当然，这假设您已经验证了日期的格式为r'\d+/\d+/\d+'。

在python中不使用datetime对象。

# A date has day 'd', month 'm' and year 'y' 
class Date:
    def __init__(self, d, m, y):
            self.d = d
            self.m = m
            self.y = y

# To store number of days in all months from 
# January to Dec. 
monthDays = [31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30,
                                            31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31 ]

# This function counts number of leap years 
# before the given date 
def countLeapYears(d):

    years = d.y

    # Check if the current year needs to be considered 
    # for the count of leap years or not 
    if (d.m <= 2) :
            years-= 1

    # An year is a leap year if it is a multiple of 4, 
    # multiple of 400 and not a multiple of 100. 
    return int(years / 4 - years / 100 + years / 400 )


# This function returns number of days between two 
# given dates 
def getDifference(dt1, dt2) :

    # COUNT TOTAL NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE FIRST DATE 'dt1' 

    # initialize count using years and day 
    n1 = dt1.y * 365 + dt1.d

    # Add days for months in given date 
    for i in range(0, dt1.m - 1) :
            n1 += monthDays[i]

    # Since every leap year is of 366 days, 
    # Add a day for every leap year 
    n1 += countLeapYears(dt1)

    # SIMILARLY, COUNT TOTAL NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE 'dt2' 

    n2 = dt2.y * 365 + dt2.d
    for i in range(0, dt2.m - 1) :
            n2 += monthDays[i]
    n2 += countLeapYears(dt2)

    # return difference between two counts 
    return (n2 - n1)


# Driver program 
dt1 = Date(31, 12, 2018 )
dt2 = Date(1, 1, 2019 )

print(getDifference(dt1, dt2), "days")

使用datetime函数:

from datetime import datetime
date_format = "%m/%d/%Y"
a = datetime.strptime('8/18/2008', date_format)
b = datetime.strptime('9/26/2008', date_format)
delta = b - a
print delta.days # that's it
