Simple way to find the amount of years between two dates?

[Brandon Keith Biggs]

Hello,
using the django.utils.timezone.now() function, how can I find the difference from another date in years?
For example, if I have two dates like:
date1 = (1991, 12, 23)
date2 = (1995, 12, 6)

How do I use the current time to get 23 from the first and 19 from the second?
thank you,

question is a bit vague, but look at python datetime.datetime and datetime.timedelta

Hello,
This works:
from django.utils import timezone
from datetime import datetime

today = timezone.now()
date1 = datetime(1991, 12, 23, tzinfo=today.tzinfo)
apart = today-date1
years = apart.days/365
print(years)
This works great for what I need it for!
thanks,
