Description
There are plenty of libraries to choose from, when working with dates and times (python-dateutil, parsedatetime, arrow, ...)., and choosing one is not trivial. I was wondering if such a section might be useful in this book and where it should be placed. Perhaps "Scenario Guide > Date and time"?.
