# DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TWO TIME PERIODS in Python using datetime module
from datetime import datetime

# Step-1 Define the start and end time using datetime objects
start_time = datetime(2025, 6, 3, 8, 20, 45)
end_time = datetime(2025, 6, 11, 14, 5, 30)

# Step-2 Subtract the two to get a timedelta object
difference = end_time - start_time

# Step-3 Extract total seconds and convert to hours, minutes, seconds
total_seconds = int(difference.total_seconds())
hours = total_seconds // 3600
minutes = (total_seconds % 3600) // 60
seconds = total_seconds % 60

# Step-4 Display the time difference
print(f"\nTIME DIFFERENCE: {hours} HOURS, {minutes} MINUTES, {seconds} SECONDS")
