How do I remove the microseconds from a timedelta object?

If it is just for the display, this idea works :

avgString = str(avg).split(".")[0]

The idea is to take only what is before the point. It will return 01:23:45 for 01:23:45.1235

Take the timedelta and remove its own microseconds, as microseconds and read-only attribute:

avg = sum(datetimes, datetime.timedelta(0)) / len(datetimes)
avg = avg - datetime.timedelta(microseconds=avg.microseconds)

You can make your own little function if it is a recurring need:

import datetime

def chop_microseconds(delta):
    return delta - datetime.timedelta(microseconds=delta.microseconds)

I have not found a better solution.
