Question

I am tryng to convert date-time into string.

I am searching answer of this question

when i do this

i am able convert datetime into time-stamp but I want to concert today's date into time-stamp like this:

timenow = datetime.datetime.now() //timenow = 2017-05-01 14:07:19 time.mktime(time.strptime(timenow, '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'))

then it throws error TypeError: expected string or buffer even i tried like

 time.mktime(time.strptime(str(timenow), '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'))

then it throws ValueError: unconverted data remains: .067000
