Python Dates and Times in Python (2014) Dates and Times Today and Tomorrow

datetime not working

when I try to use datetime in workspaces, I get 'Attribute Error: 'module' object has no attribute 'datetime'.

Also tried from datetime import datetime, that doesn't work either.

Also, can't get the workspace to start on the python dates and times lessons, it forces me back to a previous workspace.

Any ideas?

That's...strange. Are you, by any chance, trying to do this in a file named datetime.py?

Also, what video isn't letting you start a new workspace? All of them?

I was trying to start a fresh workspace on the current lesson, can't remember which. Anyway, I found if I typed in a new name on the top box, it would open workspace on the new lesson. This is confusing because there was already text in the title for the current lesson, so I didn't see the need to put in another title to get the new space to open. Thanks for your help, Treehouse is awesome.

I'm having the same issue, except for the workspace not working.
