- A POSIX is a floating point number marking the seconds since the epoch 1/1/1970. The older values (closer to 1970) have a lower value.
- Given a list of POSIX numbers, sorting them would put the lowest/oldest first.
- a
datetime
object can be created directly from a POSIX format number using .fromtimestamp method:datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(posix_number)
- return this result
Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!
