The timedelta
class in Python’s datetime
module is used to represent a duration, or a difference between two dates or times. It has several attributes, including days
, which is used to store the number of days in the duration.
The error unsupported type for timedelta days component numpy int32
suggests that you are trying to pass a numpy.int32
object as the value for the days
attribute of a timedelta
object, but timedelta
only supports integer values.
To fix this error, you will need to convert the numpy.int32
object to a regular Python int
object before passing it to timedelta
. You can do this using the .item()
method of the numpy.int32
object, which returns the value as a Python int
.
For example:
import numpy as np
# Create a numpy int32 object
numpy_int32 = np.int32(7)
# Convert to a Python int
python_int = numpy_int32.item()
# Create a timedelta using the Python int
duration = datetime.timedelta(days=python_int)
Alternatively, you can use the .astype()
method of the numpy.int32
object to cast it to a Python int
:
import numpy as np
# Create a numpy int32 object
numpy_int32 = np.int32(7)
# Convert to a Python int
python_int = numpy_int32.astype(int)
# Create a timedelta using the Python int
duration = datetime.timedelta(days=python_int)
