Add 1-day to today()

JeffHouser — Mon, 16 Oct 2023 07:30:10 GMT

Hello,

I'm using ArcGIS Desktop. I'm trying to update a date field in a featureclass using the following code:

rows.updateRow((datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(days=+1)))

I'm just trying to add 1-day to today(). The above code is triggering a TypeError: argument must be sequence of values. Seems I may be using timedelta wrong? Maybe there is a better way?

As an example...

datetime.date.today() datetime.date(2023, 10, 16) datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(days=10) datetime.date(2023, 10, 26)

Thank you Dan for you your reply. I was already using your #4 example. Looks like I had a paranthesis issue in my code. What I found out, I needed to change the code:

from
rows.updateRow((datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(days=+1)))
to
rows.updateRow([datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(days=1)])

Thank You
