9,831 PointsFar Away timedelta Challenge
Hey, Can someone look into my code and see what I am doing wrong to tackle this assignment?
import datetime
now = datetime.datetime.now()
far_away = datetime.timedelta( hours=0)
datetime = now + far_away

231,275 PointsThe instructions say, "Write a function called far_away that takes one argument, a timedelta. Add that timedelta to datetime.datetime.now() and return the resulting datetime object."
So here are some hints based on what you have so far:
- to create a function, use the "def" keyword
- the function definition must include an argument (you can pick the name)
- the argument will provide the timedelta so you won't need to construct a new one
- be sure to return the calculated date
- remember that the body of a function must be indented more than the "def" line

Courses Plus Student 23,765 PointsThank yo pierreilyamukuru I was able to get the datetime importa which I was missing in my process, you're the best; however, may I suggest the following answer which worked for me?
```import datetime
def far_away(timedelta) now = datetime.datetime.now() retiurn now + timedelta
I hope this helps
