Should I use datetime instead of slicing?

   For real code, yes — datetime.fromisoformat() parses it properly (and since 3.11 it handles the trailing "Z"). This challenge is about practising slicing, and ISO 8601 is fixed-width, so slicing works reliably here.

      Good to know both options.

         Slicing first, datetime later. Nice progression.

   The "Mission elapsed time" challenge uses datetime later on.
