Computes the sun’s apparent position for a given time and location. For this task, the practical move is to use a library rather than grind through trigonometric equations by hand. section 4.7
The treatment is deliberately simple: it points to an off-the-shelf solution, shows the input shape, and contrasts that with a brittle handwritten algorithm full of constants. section 4.7
Minimal library use
A Python library is installed with one command and then called with a datetime, longitude, and latitude to return azimuth and altitude. section 4.7
from suncalc import get_position get_position(datetime, longitude, latitude)
Shows the direct call shape: pass datetime, longitude, and latitude into get_position. section 4.7
{'azimuth': -0.014045295626482863, 'altitude': 0.8562684198030407}
Shows the returned position data as azimuth and altitude values. section 4.7
