Run Python Program Until Specific Time

I want to run my program in jupyter notebook and this program stops at specific time(for example 18:00). I wrote program by while loop and incremental index, but it's better to write it with time parameter.

I run mentioned program for 7 hours each day. It must run nonstop.

while(i<500000):
    execute algorithm
    i+=1

But I'd like to run my program like bellow:

while(not 18:00 clock):
    execute algorithm
Solution 
  • import datetime

while datetime.datetime.now().hour < 18:
    do stuff...

    or

    if datetime.datetime.now().hour >= 18:
    return
