python error "TypeError: 'int' object is not callable"

Question

This is my code:

import time
a = time.daylight()
print(a)

It results in:

TypeError: 'int' object is not callable.

What is the problem?

you can use print(type(time.daylight)) and it'll tell you want kind of type the attribute is. If it's a function, then you can call it with your parans () — blakev

time.daylight is a number; do not attempt to call it by putting parentheses at the end.
