    I meet some difficulties to solve this problem because I first think that we have to used Calendar module. But in fact, we have to use datetime module. From the documentation, we have a full table with all meaning of %a, %b etc...

    Once we have this knowledge, we can just go step by step by solving each error one after one.

    Here, I convert both datetime in delta_time thanks to the conversion value of the documentation.

    Then, I do the difference.

    Finally, because test case 1 and 2 were not solved cause of values like "-123456" instead of "123456", I just add a small if/else condition to remove this possible "-".

    Here the code :

    #!/bin/python3

import math
import os
import random
import re
import sys
from datetime import datetime

# Complete the time_delta function below.
def time_delta(t1, t2):
    
    delta_time_t1 = datetime.strptime(t1, '%a %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z')
    delta_time_t2 = datetime.strptime(t2, '%a %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z')
    
    difference_delta_time = delta_time_t1 - delta_time_t2
    
    #print(delta_time_t1)
    #print(delta_time_t2)
    #print(int(difference_delta_time.total_seconds()))
    
    output = str(int(difference_delta_time.total_seconds()))
    
    #print(output[0])    
    
    output = output[1:] if output.startswith('-') else output

    return output
    
    return 500
if __name__ == '__main__':
    fptr = open(os.environ['OUTPUT_PATH'], 'w')

    t = int(input())

    for t_itr in range(t):
        t1 = input()

        t2 = input()

        delta = time_delta(t1, t2)

        fptr.write(delta + '\n')

    fptr.close()
