Add time values in Python
I have a list of times that are in following format:
Hour:Minue:Second.Microseconds
File looks like this:
0:06:50.137529
0:08:55.439963
0:06:19.179093
0:07:16.680906
0:31:55.778010
0:16:56.940836
Is there a Python function or set of commands that will let me add all of these values together?
I initially "build" these values with the following code:
optimize_times =
starting_time=(datetime.now())
ending_time=(datetime.now())
optimize_times.append(str(ending_time-starting_time))
python string python-2.7 datetime timedelta

You can use datetime.timedelta from the standard library:
from datetime import timedelta
L = ['0:06:50.137529', '0:08:55.439963', '0:06:19.179093',
'0:07:16.680906', '0:31:55.778010', '0:16:56.940836']
def str_to_td(x):
hrs, mins, sec_micro = x.split(':')
secs, msecs = map(int, sec_micro.split('.'))
return timedelta(hours=int(hrs), minutes=int(mins), seconds=secs, microseconds=msecs)
res = sum(map(str_to_td, L), timedelta())
# datetime.timedelta(0, 4694, 156337)
Note the output of this is a timedelta object. If this isn't the format your desire, you'll need to convert back to a string with additional logic.
