I don't know if it was in there in the early versions of the .NET framework, but C# and .NET have decent time libraries standard. I didn't run into nearly as many warts and annoyances with .NET dates & times as I did with Python.
I agree - I came to Python after doing .Net and was surprised at how confusing the time/date handling is - particularly as pretty much everything else in Python is so nice!
