Write a Python program to create a localized, humanized representation of a relative difference in time using arrow module.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

import arrow
print("Current datetime:")
print(arrow.utcnow())
earlier = arrow.utcnow().shift(hours=-4)
print(earlier.humanize())
later = earlier.shift(hours=3)
print(later.humanize(earlier))

Sample Output:

Current datetime:
2019-06-01T11:59:21.976000+00:00
4 hours ago
in 3 hours
